Christmas has come early for my delightful garden writing pod. Walking through Leamington Spa, I spotted this beautiful bookcase outside a shop & fell in love with it. Handmade in India & sold by Vonda of Ember Home. I might have to buy another one as I’ve have tons more books to add! 😁

Weekend in Belfast with a lovely author friend. Her kitty, Teddy is telling me it’s too early to be up on a Saturday ☕️

Okay then 👍

Totally agree! ❤️

One of the best parts of the WGA deal: AI has now hit a brick wall in Hollywood, *and that includes adaptations.* Based on the deal, AI can't be source material. So if you're a publisher, AI novels or graphic novels or whatever just became that much less appealing because *they can't be optioned.*
