I have fallen into the Lego hole and I am collecting book related sets. Birch Bookshop and Sherlock Holmes are all lit up. I feel incredibly clever! #Lego #lightmybricks

If you're looking for historical images to illustrate your blog/book etc check out my list of resources and databases www.naomiclifford.com/image-databa... The focus is on Britain in the 18th and 19th centuries. #history

Thank you for the shout @cindyreadsromance.bsky.social

Wars, tariffs , paper, production costs and the battle to get our books seen means there is a crisis in publishing. Indies do most of the heavy lifting in finding great new stories that the risk averse conglomerates shy away from. Support Indies! www.thebookseller.com/comment/open...

I hope this is true. Having lost a parent to this hideous disease… I don’t wish it on anyone!

Henrietta Maria and the late lamented Charles I star, appropriately, in a fab Vanitas painting by Carstian Luyckx of Antwerp. It's been his day.

Happy Batman Day!! 🦇

Far as I can tell, Robert Redford was: * successful at everything he tried * genuinely intelligent & insightful * desired by women * envied by men * an absolute mensch to everyone he dealt with * a tireless, lifelong philanthropist ... and he died peacefully in his sleep. 10/10 life. No notes.

Our visit to #ZionNP was a highlight of our recent trip to the US.

I haven’t seen that ittle orange ticker on any of my books for a long time … it still gives me a thrill 😀

What is wrong with these people?

I know this is not exactly a ‘new’’ release but it is a refresh of one of my favourite books - BY THE SWORD.I love this cover from DP Books. www.alisonstuart.com/by-the-sword...

@joshjohnsoncomedy.bsky.social is now my absolute must watch. his gentle observational humour has taken a deep turn and he skewers the truth. Thank you, Josh.

I have been away for what seems like forever - a trip to the USA to attend the HNSA conf in Las Vegas. Entering the US was nerve wracking and yes, someone on our flight was detained and deported. My fears were real but we were allowed in. Sadly it will be my last visit for the foreseeable future.

#timelinecleanse We walked along the foreshore this afternoon and stood together on the foreshore in the autumn-soft breeze letting the soft murmur of the water calm our souls while the boy played among the rocks with shells and seaweed... Wet shoes and socks will dry... memories last forever.

#caturday Fig brings us so much joy.

It took me 20 years to find an agent and not one but two trad publishing contracts. This is a long haul game!

A friend is going to make me a Regency gown and I have a selection of fabulous sari fabrics. Which one should I choose?

It took me most of the afternoon to draft this, but it's finally here - a bonanza of Unusual Historicals debuting in February 2025. Hey, you know all that talk about historicals "dying?" Yeah, maybe not so much. wendythesuperlibrarian.blogspot.com/2025/02/cand... #RomBkBlog #Romancelandia

I’ve been away from home for the past week - I think I was missed ❤️#Figtherescuecat #catsofbluesky #caturday

ICYMI: @profromance.bsky.social got tired of hearing that romance only became popular recently & I got tired of hearing that romance bookstores started in the US, so we wrote an article about it. Our contribution to the Valentine's Day romance hot takes is on the long history of romance bookstores

At least I understand test cricket!

#caturday morning vibes with Fig.

I was born in Kenya and I always have my eye out for books set in this beautiful country. Thank you @tonyriches.bsky.social for the recommendation.
