A billion dollars in the socio-economic equivalent of a loose nuke, and we should work with the same intensity and ruthlessness to prevent the former as we do the latter.

15 people have blocked me over this post. People really don't like being challenged over their Dramione reading, do they?

A good article. Proud to say I rejected one of these Dramione submissions based on the fact I didn't want to platform the TERF queen in any form. There are two ways to make money in publishing, and one way is... icky. And, indeed, cynical.

Please could you help me to spread the word about my swashbuckling adventure story with a pirate protagonist, sapphic romance, with a dash of werewolves and vampires? My latest novel THE VENGEANCE is available in all formats geni.us/thevengeance Perfect for escaping the horrors of our time.

Just stay off the platform. Let the absence of Disney give birth to new creative voices.

Happy #bivisibilityday from this bisexual editor! I love seeing bisexual representation in books and have acquired quite a few novels now that feature bisexual characters. Agents, please always feel free to send me books with this rep! ❤️

No, Microsoft Word spellcheck, I do not mean that he is bearing his soul. He is most definitely baring his soul. Get into the sea with your somehow-worse-than-ever suggestions.

Finished Rakesfall last night, the 2nd novel by @vajra.me, and it's my favorite new SF in the last several years - since Gnomon by @nickharkaway.com in fact. Like most novels I love, it defies easy description or categorization, and you spend much of the book unsure exactly what kind of book it is 🧵

Wow, it is amazing how quickly things move when you mention you can smell gas. Just been told by the engineer that there is no gas leak. Good. This does not come as a surprise to me 😂

Ah, good. Having problems with the boiler in the rented house which we are being evicted from on 13th October. I am sure the letting agents will get RIGHT on sorting that 🙄🙄🙄 Think I will tell them I can smell gas...

What movie do you consider perfect?

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes. #romancelandia

What's up with Tadej then?

I love the Winter Olympics let’s all get frostbite and fall down a mountain

Blade II is really just a fantastically fun film.

Such excellent work. Turns out everyone can protest fascism from their sofas!

Apart from the brilliance of these rich, beautiful novels, can we take a moment to delight in those gorgeous covers, which match so wonderfully. I love a trilogy with matching covers 😍

I really loved this hugely inventive story - Rakesfall by Vajra Chandrasekera www.runalongtheshelves.net/blog/2025/9/...

Cheapest tickets for System of a Down, in the gods a mile away from the stage, are £164 each. That's a no then. Just a shame so many people will suck it up and buy at that price, which means us hard-up folk are unable to also enjoy.

Interestingly, on Facebook I suddenly have an advert for a year of Disney+, saving money if I sign up. I'm sure some of that is algorithms because I have been talking about Disney+ over here - but what is very revealing is that EVERY SINGLE COMMENT on that post is negative because of Kimmel.

This is what we love to see. Go, go, go! More power to everyone who is protesting today with a Disney+ cancellation and a strong statement as to why you're doing it.

The address to target is: Disney-ABC Home Entertainment and Television Distribution 500 S. Buena Vista St. Burbank, CA 91521-3515

Encourage this. I am in one of my 'not Disney, but Apple' streaming stages, but if I was streaming Disney, I would be cancelling in solidarity and stating 'Other' as reason, then explaining that they are going against free speech.

Solaris Presents is back with a bang! On 27/09 at 5pm BST join us for a fun, FREE!, online event with @taranhunt.bsky.social & @voidcricket.bsky.social talking about the latest releases (THE UNKILLABLE PRINCESS & AN UNBREAKABLE WORLD) in their expanding SciFi Universes! 👉https://geni.us/SPTHRH

This is amazing. Someone’s following the National Guard around DC playing the Imperial March from Star Wars

Well, the Vuelta race organisers fucked around and found out - no balls to turf out the Israel team personally supported and endorsed by Netanyahu, so no proper race ending thanks to massive protests by people standing up for the Palestinians. Massively proud of them.

With players as varied in body shape as Clifford and Aitchison playing top class rugby for England right now, it once again demonstrates how much it is a game for everyone, the most inclusive sport on the planet.

I am so proud of Tom Pidcock after catching up with the Vuelta. What an astonishingly talent bike rider. Cross world champ, mountain bike world champ, double gold medal at the Olympics in mountain bike, took a stage win at the Tour de France on one of the hardest summit finishes after insane...

Disappointing transphobes from top to bottom. Lots of properties to no longer support.

On Tuesday 16th September, you can hop over to r/fantasy on Reddit to @roannelau.bsky.social 's 'Ask Me Anything'! Roanne's debut fantasy, THE SERPENT CALLED MERCY combines the steadfast friendship & class politics of SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE with the tricky politics & arena battles of THE HUNGER GAMES.

🚨ACQUISITION ANNOUNCEMENT!🚨 From “only one bed” to “only one body”, perfect for fans of THE EXPANSE and Emily Henry, we've snapped up the romantic space opera HEADSPACE, from critically acclaimed sci-fi romance author @jtewwrites.bsky.social 's adult debut, for the UK! 👉 bit.ly/3Vdcerg

Hmm, with Asunder and now Headspace, it turns out one of my favourite tropes appears to be two people, one body!

I'm so excited that this one has been announced! ❤️ www.thebookseller.com/rights/solar...

This is how all authors edit their books, right? 👀🪓🐑

Well, I never expected to see a person killed while scrolling through social media. Please, please turn off autoplay on your posts. I'm going to be avoiding all my SM for a while. Whoever a person is or the values they espoused, you never want to watch them die.
