ANOTHER #buyastrangerabook day offer. @lnr.bsky.social has sent me £20, to buy someone a book. That's any book you'd like, not just the stuff on my website. If there's a book you'd really like, just let us know. Maybe we can help! UK only.

#WritingTip: It’s easy to focus on all the writing goals you didn’t accomplish at the end of the day. Instead, focus on what you did get done and/or make a plan for your next writing day.

📚 Our August books are nearly here! From celebrating 150 years of Hibernian FC to poetry, short stories, kids’ historical fiction, adult literary fiction, biography, folklore, nature, history & film — there’s something for everyone. Which will you read first? 👀 #NewBooks
