All this tech. And the thing about cheques.

thought I would get a light read in to distract from *gestures*, picked up Pratchett's _Going Postal_, ended up getting my hair blown back by his opinions on vulture capital.

I'm making blackberry crumble and randomly marvelling the genius of having a crossbow maker named Burliegh and Stronginthearm. I mean, it's just delightful.

I have a book out in two weeks. So....one repost of this and I'll drop one fact/spoiler/detail about the book. @walkerbooksuk.bsky.social www.walker.co.uk/978152951581...

Well done all #WriteCBC entrants! I really enjoyed reading all of your entries! @cbcreative.bsky.social Hope to see some of you on the Romantic and Commercial fiction course in October! ⬇️⬇️⬇️

If you hear a terrible ad on a podcast you like, the podcaster a) may not know about it and b) may or may not be able to fix it. Great thread about terrible ads by @smartbitches.bsky.social

I'm supremely mad and I'm going to rant about it. I have a podcast. It's hosted by ACast. They do dynamic insertion ads prior to the show, which I've enabled. These are basically the commercials you might hear before the show starts.
