This might be a celebrity fiction book I can actually get behind 😆* * Especially since they are being upfront about the co-writing

happy national crayon 🖍️day

Just when I didn’t think I could love @contrapoints.bsky.social any more, she goes and does a deep dive into the horror genre and the morality of fictional violence. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiGI...

ME THREEE

I believe in this project so much that I’ve donated all my writing income from this year’s PLR and ALCS payments. I saw the preview in London and it brought me to tears. Please to support, share and donate whatever you can—even £1 helps. 🙏🩰🙏🏳️‍⚧️🙏 #ADanceOfIdentity www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/dance-of-i...

**** Publication day! **** Huge thanks to @paulwritespoems.bsky.social for compiling this awesome anthology including @francesca-laura.bsky.social @moleculesunlimited.bsky.social @lenaozge.bsky.social @carmellapoetry.bsky.social @thepaulconnolly.bsky.social paulwritespoems.com/unwhispered-...

That’s a long line. Men get away with this crap because our society still condones it. Keep calling it out. I sent this to my publishers a couple of years ago. They were great about it. There’s no need for us to entertain people like that.

Now that this manuscript is on my agent’s desk, I’m free to get back to the other two books I’m working on! 🤓📚🤓📚🤓 #AlwaysWriting

Book lovers are the best 🤗

🤣

Can anyone help?

For any writer who needs to hear this: You don't have to write a bestselling literary masterpiece 📚💸 Write the book you wish existed 🌸✨

I need to be in this town

Here are three shelves of my books. Some new, some second hand. A-Z by author I need a bit more space so i'm selling these at 2 for £9. If there are two (or more) you'd like, let me know UK only

Another fun medical quiz. *Decreased* “inverse of fasting insulin” — good or bad (generally speaking)? *Increased* “HOMA insulin resistance” — good or bad (generally speaking)?

Okay guys, really random question. Medically speaking, would a *decrease* in high density lipoprotein (HDL) generally be a good thing or a bad thing?

#Caturday!

Does anyone here want to cook my dinner for me? I’m really tired but I’m also still hungry. Thanks, etc.

Okay, the edit letters from the interns are really good and make some excellent suggestions — which I feel I can do 😅😅😅 So… MORE EDITING FOR MEEEEEEEEE!

Now this I am excited about!!! #BigLittleTruths

My editing plans have been completely derailed. I was going to put the finishing touches to this round of edits, then SEND TO MY AGENT 🥳🥳🥳 But. My agent has just sent me two incredibly thoughtful critiques of the original MS from her lovely interns (whom she is training up) #Timing 😆😆😆 So… 1/

I got there! I finished yet another read through and have marked up the whole manuscript yet again (this time on my iPad/Kindle). Am I done yet? Of course not! Now I have to go back and transcribe these notes onto the manuscript itself… 🫠🫠🫠

There’s a horror story in there somewhere…

Today, I managed to read through almost half of my manuscript again on my Kindle. I have to admit, I’m really getting sick of this story, which means it must be nearly time to send it to my agent 😆 There’s always a point where you just can’t see the wood for the trees anymore… Then it’s to get help.

Just to say, I LOVED this book. Like #RosemarysBaby meets haunted house. Thank you, @stephenking.bsky.social for recommending this in #DanseMacabre.
