It's been a somewhat insane couple of weeks, not all bad but my body is tired. Bring on the holidays! Amsterdam for 10 days & a Scottish cottage long weekend 🥰 #travel

We need more joy in the world right now & being in this fandom, does exactly that. Myself & @onthewaysomewhere.bsky.social are running a rom-com AU event, follow our bluesky or Tumblr for more details ❤️🤍👑💙 #rwrb

The cutest darn fic, this event is one of my absolute faves 🥰 #rwrb

I'm missing routine but also this is pretty nice. On annual leave yet again 📚

💙📚 For International Women's Day, recommend ten books by women writers. 1. The Nightmare Before Kissmas - Sara Raasch 2. Let Love Rule - Frances M Thompson 3. Only Ever Yours by Louise O'Neill 4. Herc - Phoenicia Rogerson 5. Monument 14 by Emmy Laybourne 1/2

I had my first iced coffee of the year, seasonal depression that is your cue to leave.

The world ain't so bad when you get snuggles from the diva herself ✨ #catsofbluesky

Spending my annual leave as wholesomely as possible; finished a book last night, been beading bracelets for pals and made this grapefruit & lemon drizzle cake 😍

Wearing the kind of outfit that requires a fit check aka I ate the damn assignment. Which considering we're going out in shit weather is pretty impressive 💅🏻

Explored St Boswell's yesterday with excellent company, nature was needed 💚

Tonight we watched Anora & it was genuinely so good that I'm looking forward to my second watch already. Gets the dramedy balance so spot on 🎬

We're fully into Awards season mode, tonight's watch was Sing Sing. It is beautiful, seeing all of those 'as himself' credits just broke me. Colman Domingo, you've earned that Oscar 🤞🏻

Back from my Dutch hiatus, Amsterdam is really one of the best cities to wander. [I also have a Google maps list for recommendations, happy to share] 🇳🇱

i’ve gotten a lot of messages from baby queers being like “will we get through this” and the answer is yes. i don’t know how it’ll all go down and it will suck for a while but your human spirit is 10000x stronger than their hatred. it’s the only reason you’ve gotten this far

Despite having had it done so many times, every time I get my hair bleached for new colours, the blonde is such a jump scare 😂

In three consolidated suits, publishers allege that OpenAI broke copyright law by copying millions of articles without permission or payment. OpenAI counters that the fair use doctrine protects them.

Christened the new mug today, black cats aren't just for Halloween 🐈‍⬛

It's temporary but I couldn't resist putting my lights around my bed, so cosy 🥰

Musical fix sorted: seeing Kinky Boots in February ✨💁🏻🎶 [Highly recommend checking out the ATG Tickets January sale if you're a theatre lover, last year we got opera tickets for an absolute bargain!]

New year, new office space! I am now working from my granny's and I'm wondering how long it will take for the cat to find a spot on my desk/chair 😼

I bought physical media for the first time in forever today. These are some of my all time favourites & I don't want to rely on streaming to watch them. Recommend them highly if you like having your heart ripped into shreds 🥲

Just finished The Nightmare before Kissmas by @sararaaschbooks.com and it was an absolute delight! So fun with random lines that hit you square in the chest in the best possible way. Can't wait for the sequel 🍀

Ending the year how I hope to continue into the next: reading, writing fanfic with a blanket & snacks.

If any family member asks “so are you still doing that writing thing?” you are allowed to take one of their presents of your choosing.

Merry Christmas lovelies ✨❤️

Spend the morning going last bits of shopping & seeing the bestie & her lil boy for hot chocolate. He's 4 and asked Santa for a lamp post, lil legend.

Lots of compliments on the Crimbo nails today while I did the last of my errands 💅🏻

So how about that fiveweekiversary Xmas giveaway? Post a 🐝 below & share by the 20th to be in the mix for this bundle - Signed The Last To Drown & We Are All Ghosts In The Forest, 2 bookmarks, a lovingly felted bee that didn't involve me stabbing myself *at all* & a mini bee cross stitch kit!

Movie night with my mum & my granny. Just getting in the festive mood ✨ #DieHard

#Authors, #WritingCommunity I've been alerted to this FREE workshop tonight on Zoom with Reena Shah, senior fiction editor at American literary magazine The Rumpus and debut novelist. She'll be discussing the submission process and how to get your manuscript noticed! ✍️⬇️ mailchi.mp/072407136425...

Even this grumpy lil shit like a snuggle in the blanket sometimes. #CatsOfBluesky

It's feeling like a Christmas movie in the background, work on the sofa with a cosy blanket kind of a day.

I've been looking forward to this rewatch all year. If you haven't seen The Holdovers, rectify that immediately. Gorgeous, Dead Poets Society but make it festive vibes 🥰

That Christmas had no business being so cute. I'm not crying, you are 😭

We're three days into December, my lebkuchen consumption is up by, I'd say, at least 147%...

It's Blue's favourite time of year... She gets her favourite box from the Xmas tree, the same bit of tinsel has basically lived in there for as long as she's been with us 😂 #ChristmasCat

Hoping I'll finish up the Christmas cards today, here's some of the trickier designs from this year. So pleased with them! ✨

Thrilled to share that I’ve written a book! I AM NOT A TOURIST: CONVERSATIONS ON BEING BRITISH CHINESE, out March 2025. It’s been a labour of love and connected me with amazing people across the UK. Many thanks to @hqstories.bsky.social, @harpercollins.bsky.social, and my agent Imogen Morrell

Just nice Tuesday things 🥰

Wrote for the Bookseller on retail categories for books, particularly related to identity, and how these can be misleading, outdated, harmful or pigeonhole marginalised writers. Would love to hear others' thoughts/experience! #neurodiversity #writingcommunity www.thebookseller.com/comment/cate...

I've been making a list of #LGBTQ+ friendly bookshops, please tell me if I've missed any. I am eventually going to add if you can order online from them etc, every sale counts for independent bookshops! 🏳️‍🌈📚 maps.app.goo.gl/NvmdGhDyLxQb...

Snow day = stay at home and read a book day, no? ❄️

It's my favourite time of year: unhinged Xmas decorations are out 👀😏🎄

Making my way through #HeartstopperS3 & no spoilers here but I will say the Jonathan Bailey cameo is absolutely perfect 🍂🥲

Just shouting some joy into the void, we got Billy Joel tickets!! 🥹

How dare this film make me so emotional with its gorgeous animation, banging soundtrack & relatable themes 🥹 #RobotDreams

Thank goodness for Vinted when it comes to cosplay. As much as I would love the 80s vintages originals for my Charles Rowland costume, my bank account would not. #DeadBoyDetectives
