Who follows me that would both like to talk to me about the life of a Belfast dock worker in the late 1800s and who also knows what they're talking about?

Fuck it, more limelight for me. So here's my upcoming novel ANTARA, with Luna Press. I think it took me just over 4 years to write. Shit ton of research. The cover reveal will be next month, but I got the exact artist I wanted. Um...yeah. Ask me anything, I guess.

We are delighted to welcome Tade Thompson to the Luna family, and the superb Antara, an historical fiction novel, on the pre-Islamic warrior poet of renown. We have acquired WEL rights from Alexander ...

Domestic abuse is the leading cause of mortality worldwide for women between 19 and 44, more than cancer, war, and road traffic accidents. Be shocked, but also try to do something about it. Donate to shelters, support relevant legislation etc.

4yrs on from waking to sudden hearing loss-SSHL. It’s amazing how such a shitty situation actually led to lots of positives. I wouldn’t choose it, but if I knew then what I know now, it would have been less terrifying. It would have been nice if this little lady didn’t lose her hearing too though.

The day has come! “The Nerd Reich” is now available at your favorite local bookstore. I’ll be on @msnowreports.bsky.social at approximately 10:30 am ET to talk about it. Tune in. And buy it! First week sales make a huge difference. If you keep reading, I keep fighting.

Promotional graphic for the nerd Reich book. Quote from Publishers Weekly: “ transfixing it’s an ominous look at an insular elite arrayed against American democracy.”

Seeing as how the UK news media's focus is now on blaming Cambridge for Arday's ordeal, this piece needs to be shared widely.

My latest, on how the British/global media hounded Jason Arday to death. “Given the history of white media’s key role in terror against Black people, at what point do we call such actions of journalism outlets digital terror campaigns? “ karenattiah.substack.com/p/jason-arda...

Happy birthday, Graeme Clark! 🎉 🧪Clark won a 2013 Clinical Medical Research Lasker Award, alongside Ingeborg Hochmair-Desoyer and Blake Wilson, for developing modern cochlear implants, which have allowed more than 1 million people worldwide to hear again (or, in some cases, for the first time).

Lasker Laureates have helped map the wiring of the brain, decipher the chemical communication between neurons, create innovative therapies for Parkinson's disease, and restore hearing to the deaf.

You know who wasn't hounded to suicide for dodgy academic research? ANDREW FUCKING WAKEFIELD.

Fucking Christ alive. This is fucking horrific. Like the dude was obviously a fabulist and probably a plagiarist but SO ARE ALL FUCKING ACADEMICS. He was also still a vulnerable, autistic Black man and the entire campaign against him was motivated by racism. All these things can be true.
