I’d watch Jessie Buckley read the phone book. Can’t wait to see her in this

Epic; no notes

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day? Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚

Authors! Is anyone else making a claim from the Anthropic Settlement? I've filled in the whole claim form but there doesn't appear to be a payment option that works for the UK. Anyone got advice?

We know it but seeing it reported like this is so depressing

"Artemisia Gentileschi: Naples to Beirut" at the Columbus Museum of Art in Ohio, October 31, 2025–May 31, 2026 www.columbusmuseum.org/exhibitions/...

Elizabeth Cropper on Lavinia Fontana, Artemisia Gentileschi, and women in art history.

A great endorsement from @lizfremantle.bsky.social for Women Who Ruled the World: 5000 Years of Female Monarchy. Elizabeth has written so many wonderful historical novels, including Firebrand, on which the major feature film was based last year ‘A fascinating exploration’ #womenwhoruledtheworld

Wonderful to get such great feedback for Women Who Ruled the World: 5000 Years of Female Monarchy @wearefootnote.bsky.social @ewoodacre.bsky.social @lizfremantle.bsky.social #womenwhoruledtheworld

A must listen for me! 👇the epigraph of Sinners!

Plato & socrates – are we human? 🤣

If you haven’t yet discovered Poddysy then I urge you to do so. Alex Andreou weaves a wonderful web of culture through time. You will love it.

If you like an author's books and want to make their day then drop a review on Amazon (you don't have to have bought through them). It really makes a big difference algorithm wise. If it happens to be my book well..... 🥰

Thank you so very much for this wonderful review of SINNERS, Heidi – it's so greatly appreciated. If you don't mind I'd like to warn readers that it contains spoilers.

lol you’ve got an AI girlfriend?? ur putting techbros in charge of your relationship??? ok buddy lmfao ok champ

Why do I keep telling you this? Because all of you have elderly relatives. Elderly relatives who are being targeted by vanity presses offering to publish their memoirs, or their picture books. Vanity presses telling them that they can make money, as long as they "invest" their life savings first.

The single worst thing about allowing 16 & 17 year-olds to vote is the awful 'down-with-the-kids' TikToks MPs will be making.

Out of curiosity I asked ChatGPT to summarise my latest novel Sinners, which is about the young Italian noblewoman, Beatrice Cenci, and her imprisonment and struggle for survival under the regime of her abusive tyrannical father. Look what AI said it was about 🤯

I always enter bookshops with trepidation when I've got a new book out, as I'm so used to it not being stocked and ending up feeling miserable. So the joy of finding this in @waterstones.bsky.social Piccadilly and @hatchards.bsky.social #Sinners

OMG – YES!!!!
