@bphillipsonmp.bsky.social Have you seen this? A Manchester secondary school has purged its library of 200 books in a US style censorship spree (using AI to identify 'inappropriate' titles), then ruined the career of the school librarian for good measure: www.indexoncensorship.org/2026/03/scho...

Just realised my laptop's music library is telling a little tale of most mornings...

I'm late to this party, but genuinely thrilled to find my short story "The Tiddy Mun" is on the BSFA longlist for Best Short Fiction! Congratulations to all the nominees, and huge thanks to those who nominated my story!

‘Hiding Under the Leaves’, the upcoming anthology of folk horror tales (to which I contributed the cover art and a short story) has its first review! The book is available to buy from Monday! #horror #booksky #books #fiction #folkhorror www.runalongtheshelves.net/blog/2025/11...

@itvnews.bsky.social erm, are you sure about that..?

Everyone should read this. Seriously. Incredibly important journalism from a news start up that deserves some support. www.thenerve.news/p/tony-blair... #news #tech #gaza #dystopia

So I've just finished installing the latest Windows 11 update to find Wordpad is gone. Just... gone. I did all my draft writing in that amazing little app. What is this relentless corporate obsession with making everything worse?

What's this? Oh just a major publishing house actively collaborating in its own eventual redundancy. I mean, seriously, how short sighted..? #books #publishers lithub.com/harpercollin...
