Unsolicited writing advice, no. #1716336: Over-use of dialogue tags and adverbs tends to draw attention away from the actual content of your dialogue. If you need to say in every case HOW someone said something, then consider that perhaps WHAT you made them say wasn't interesting enough.

No bookshop can stock all titles. No bookseller can keep current with all publications. If Amazon discount and next day delivery aren't factors for you, ordering from your local bookshop alerts staff to new things. I ordered this and a bookseller bought their own. Sometimes they add a copy to stock.

I read Airplane Mode by Shahnaz Habib a few months ago (Thank you
@septemberbooks.bsky.social
) I found it compelling, witty, nuanced & devastating on the many ways that colonialism is embedded in the experience of travel. I think it is a must-read.

Our first post & it's a celebration! Shahnaz Habib's Airplane Mode:Travel in the Ruins of Tourism has just won the New American Voices Award. 'I thought of all the young women who travel - the intrepid ones and the shy ones - against all the odds piled up on our way. How strong and curious we are.'
