I love sharing interests with my husband, who is normally not a horror fan. He decided to start playing @blacktabbygames.com Slay The Princess. Immediately killed the Princess, and then Chapter II (Spectre), turned around and left! I’d never seen anyone do that! (Got the achievement ‘Denial’).

I am not able to attend this but it has suddenly occurred to me that this may mean we are going to get MORE FABULOUS ART BY THE FANTASTIC @jojofraga.bsky.social ??!🙏🙏🙏 Please say yes @rustyquill.com 🥰

Next month @gollancz.bsky.social is sending me on something of a mini-book tour. First stop is Waterstones Putney in London, so if you're in the area, come say hi!

Never bring a wife to a nun fight.

EVERYBODY! Stop what you’re doing!!! The Wildwood trailer is out!!! I spent over three years, mostly hand building the Doug firs that make up the eponymous Wildwood. youtu.be/POneS8h1jyU?...

"A piece of this book is me saying there is value in banding with the poets, and fighting for the value of being curious and trying to articulate the world with whatever tools are available to us. Not for the purposes of selling something, but for the purpose of fulfilling our humanity.” 1/ 💙📚 🧪

Thrilled that this project I've been working so hard on is finally out. Introducing From The Library of Jurgen Leitner is the first novel set in the Magnus universe. It's been a pleasure working closely with @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social to bring this multi book project to life. #newbook

A gentle request for podcasters, especially audio drama podcasters, as someone who is downloading series and episodes onto a digital audio player: Please, please, please, sort your metadata

I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.

Good news The first vaccine designed to target the entire SARS virus family, GBP511, has entered human clinical trials. Developed by UW Medicine and brought to trial by SK Bioscience, it aims to protect against COVID-19 and future coronaviruses before they spark the next pandemic.

Are you all as excited as we are about the the season 3 finale releasing tomorrow?! Since we've been teasing the appearance of the great @jonnysims.bsky.social, can you all make a guess as to who he will be playing in the season finale? #podcast #seasonfinale #casting

In general, generative AI is not good. Steals other people’s idea, HUGE waste of resources, creates no value and has to be propped up by massive amounts of funding This, however is an acceptable use of AI #FuckICE

TMA BOOK FAN PROJECT While there are no new TMP episodes for me to make posters from, I decided to do a cool side project… Book covers! The page files are from Macey Smalley (maceyjsmalley on tiktok and insta) The covers and box are my own design! Let's take a look? 👇

Started listening to @camlannpod.bsky.social after yesterday’s @tincanaudio.co.uk stream and it starts with the only welsh folk song I know! Love that a story about magic and monsters is using a song about setting fire to a building to piss off the uk government, but it is an excellent tune 😆🥰❤️

A few days ago, I stood in the graveyard of an 1100 year old church, getting damper and damper in the drizzling rain. A woman walked into the graveyard, waved, said hello, and, as we had previously arranged, handed me a paper bag full of human bones. The life of a churchwarden is a strange one...

Mods asleep, post bearded cricketer's head with bat wings telling you about my stream.

This is called ‘Twenty Modern-Day Proverbs’.

We’ve been waiting to further explore the sign language learning elements found in Inspirisles, and with Dragon Dowsers we finally can! During downtime, you’ll be able to nurture the hatchlings using sign language, as if communicating in baby sign or Makaton. Can’t wait to show you more! 🐉👋🏽

#OnThisDay 64 years ago, Macabre listeners heard "The Midnight Horseman," first aired December 11th 1961. An eerie old painting and an unusual ritual lead to a fatal disaster... Hear it on Apple Podcasts, or stream it here: daffadilli.es/p433405 #AudioDrama #OldTimeRadio

Some lovely Magnus Protocol vibes here 😅@anusiabattersby.bsky.social @billielhindle.bsky.social youtu.be/HdzImxI47W4?...

Oh my goodness, the time has FLOWN! What an amazing creation to have been part of! ❤️🎪🎩

Rather unsettled to see my voice is also on here… Look I know y’all want to have your fun but there are countless other ways of having fun with the character of Alice in creative, safe and non-infringing ways. Listen to Fay. And listen to me. I do not give consent for my voice to be ripped.

Sitting in bed, listening to the rain, breastfeeding my baby and listening to @tincanaudio.co.uk ’s Pitcrawler on Bandcamp is my new happy place ❤️❤️❤️ tincanaudio.bandcamp.com/album/a-pitc... (Can’t wait to introduce ttrpgs to the little guy)

J “…I haven't been getting the best sleep.” P “New mattress?” J “No, no, it's not that I can't sleep. It's that my sleep isn't restful.” P “Then get a new mattress.” J “Forget about the mattress. What are you, sponsored?” @soundmuseumpod.bsky.social is my new favourite podcas, highly recommend!

y'all i am SO psyched to be in this show!!!!
