I'm going to need a lot of tea today. Just sayin'.

Last night I was convinced it was already midnight when it was 730 pm. This morning, I was convinced it was still midnight when it was 730 am. My inner clock seems to be in need of repair

Happy Guy Fawkes Day!

I keep thinking it's Monday. Wednesday, you say? What a nice surprise!

I finished the rough draft of my new book! Woo hoo!

On leave from my day job, so I get to be a writer today!

We have lost a legend.

I am interviewing Hallie Rubenhold tomorrow, and I can't wait! Come and join us! www.tickettailor.com/events/yorkl...

I love this

I've been at my day job for less than two hours and I'm exhausted.

Happy Friday, lovelies. I've been at work and forgot to do a post this morning. Better late than never though. Remember: 'Tiny progress is still progress.' So don't be hard on yourself and have a good weekend. #friday #fridayfeeling #weekend #weekendvibes

It is very hard to think when a cat is crying in your ear.

Trying to be positive today. It's always harder on Tuesdays.

I wish vitamins gave the same instant boost that caffeine does.

I have said it before, and I will say it again: the UK countryside is full of interdimensional portals. All you have to do is keep your eyes open and look carefully for them... tomcox.substack.com/p/20-of-the-...

I just finished a very difficult task. I'm patting myself on the back and then going to make some tea.

A bookstore closed in York today...but three others opened this year, so on balance I'm not TOO freaked out

Are you still allowed to freak out about bad news if you don't find out about it until after it was sorted out?

I'm going to be interviewing Hallie Rubenhold about her new book about Belle Elmore, the murdered wife of Dr Crippen. Come and join us! www.tickettailor.com/events/yorkl...

I have a To-Do list with no end. The infinite to-do list.

I always get a headache on Tuesdays. Just sayin'.

Maybe I should've been an interior designer. Or maybe I watched too many episodes of Fixer to Fabulous yesterday

Hallie Rubenhold is coming to York for a York Literature Festival event on 30 October, to talk about her amazing new book about evil Dr Crippen's wife and her fascinating friends. Tickets available here: buytickets.at/yorkliteratu...

This headache just won't go away...

It looks like I'm going to be writing another book for The History Press - yay! More news to come!

Phrases that strike terror into every admin's heart: 'Start a tracker', 'let's review that', and 'new policy needed'.

I've been watching BBC's The Coroner this weekend. Why did they ever cancel that show? It's great!

My feed is a strange mix of book news and political messages.

@nicolaupson.bsky.social Your response made my day! Thank you!
