Good morning!

Hello world

That road is full of abandoned rubbish on the verges - and it doesn't go anywhere!

One day I'd like to try the easy way.

I guess there is probably not much uptake for an EXISTENTIAL CRISIS WHYYYYYYYYY CARD. But I drew one nevertheless. It is strictly 100% autobiographical There’s a handfinished colour glitter version too dippyfishcards.etsy.com/listing/1749... #doomed #bsnm #mhhsbd #ukgiftam

Today is the 5th birthday of The Actual Star. I'm proud of everything I write, but this book had the hardest labor. There were many times I didn't think it'd ever even see the light of day. The world has changed a lot since then. So have I. But to my delight, the book continues to find readers.

This made me smile, attached to an ordinary cast iron drainpipe on a house in Durham. #TinyJoys

Happy publication day morning to me!! Dear friend @chrislintott.bsky.social said on record that it was "Truly unique! Sparkling with charm and interest & uncompromisingly clear". In person he said "I don't want you to take this the wrong way, but it was surprisingly good" 🥳 Major compliment! 🤗🧪

My book is being held high! I'd love to add your pic to a montage - ping it over! :). (Ebook readers also work).

Mutuals from twitter times will remember my very dark yrs of Long Covid 😵‍💫 I lost so much, but found a wonderful silver lining to the dark cloud: I decided to use all the time in bed to v slowly write a book. It took 3yrs. I can't quite believe that tomorrow is publication day & Fri is book launch! 🥹
