Three Lwyd Moon 🌕 Available this weekend only as a part of @theyetee.com annual Sweaterfest 🌿

Just seen some cool book-related stuff and ahhhhh I am so excited to share things sooooooon!

Heh, nice

The thing I want to stress to people: Authors (and other artists you admire) don't *expect* you to be scintillating when you meet us, so don't worry about being clever. What *is* appreciated is if you're nice. Just be nice! Nice is good!

Yes, also when you are meeting an artist at an opening, or a musician at a concert, an author at a book event, etc., you're meeting their public persona, which is (usually) a distinct and modulated version of themselves. Not fake! But designed to help them get through being the focus of attention.

I have done all the things! Gonna play video games and eat pain au chocolat for the rest of the day!

Happy publication day to @rainewilson.bsky.social's THE SALT ORACLE! Looking forward to diving in 🌊

I have finally upgraded my website. I have finally ponied up for my own URL. No more .wordpress for me! (At least for the next 3 years)

I am so close to taking a holiday. I just have to finish one (1) thing and today I made a pretty good draft. Just a few emails and then it is video games on the couch time!
