Holy shit this is my top contender for my favourite book of this year. Every part of this is so well crafted. The characters, their relationships, the culture, and the way problems are approached #reading #amreading #booksky 📚💙 #fantasy #fantasyreaders

Microsoft is planning to build three massive AI data centres in Leeds. It’ll drain thousands of litres of water from the River Aire and become the city's biggest carbon emitter. We can still stop the council's sign-off, but we need more voices. Add your name: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

Stop the Microsoft AI megasite in Leeds!

Don't read a lot of short stories, but damn these were good. One even brought a tear to my eye. Well played, Timothy Hickson, well played #reading #amreading 💙📚 #booksky

What a trilogy. I've definitely been reading a lot of the words in this wrong, much to a friend's dismay. But what action and brutality. Gotta love to hate Guðvar, what an arseling #reading #amreading #booksky 💙 📚 #fantasy #fantasyreaders

Fellow authors: Without any context, what's the first line of your current WIP? -- Aritricia resisted the urge to bury her face in her hands as the paladins of Mana Servitus squabbled like children.

Fellow authors: Without any context, what's the first line of your current WIP? -- In the beginning, there wasn't very much of anything anywhere, and it was also quite dark. Those were the good times.

Got my PS2 working on my TV! I thought this was going to be so much harder!

You've parked your last linkin

You've ironed your last maiden.

Think it'd have to be Terry Pratchett. I've read less than half of Discworld and I don't think I'd want to live in a world where I can't read the rest.

Apocalypse is imminent. You can save ONE author’s entire bibliography. Who are you picking?

My quickest read in a while. Three days totalling maybe three hours of reading time. Read at the behest of a friend who's been obsessed with the audiobooks. Pretty good start to the series, I'll have to dig the rest out of my parents' garage. #reading #amreading #booksky 💙📚 #fantasyreaders

any entertainment website that has a clickbait headline, just know i go out of my way to google and find a DIFFERENT non-fucking annoying website to read about the context

In the end I chose duck legs. If I'm honest I'd been drinking at the time and thought they'd be funny. I was right of course, but I hadn't expected to enjoy taking my house on the water quite so much. Days spent in a chair on the porch watching real ducks go by. I never knew what I'd been missing

Tales & Feathers Magazine@talesfeathers.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Chicken is a classic for a reason, but we offer a far wider selection of legs for your home, should you be interested in something a little more modern, unique, or personal. Horse? Flamingo? Spider? Whatever you like, we can grow! What will you choose? #TinyTalesTuesday #WritingPrompt

Over the course of the last week I have learned the true value of a stetson as well as earned the titles of grill master and camp master. What a hell of a time

My last long one for a little while. But what a trip this series is! I can't wait to get to the next one! But I want to know more about this series' magic!! After 2 books and well over 2000 pages I still know so little! #reading #amreading #booksky 💙📚 #fantasy #fantasyreaders

Happy Pride? I think?

Happy Pride fellow Gaiyans!

I'm beyond happy to share that @teamfourstar.bsky.social has voiced my Vegeta Pride comic!! 🪩🕺 A huge thank you to @kaiserneko.bsky.social and everyone over at TFS for bringing my comic to life, it's like a dream come true! Happy Pride!! 😁🫶❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

That's the first half of Words of Radiance! Should have brought the second to work with me! 📚💙 #booksky #reading #amreading #fantasy

We lost Douglas Adams 25 years ago today. This has made a lot of people very sad and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

It's taken nearly two years, but I have finally heard all the stories in the dark. Nice chap, that Robert Shearman. He actually followed me on the bird app before it became a Nazi bar. I can only call reading this a venture of masochism. God knows what writing it was like... #reading #amreading 📚💙

The most bad-ass rebuttal from Tite Kubo, the author of Bleach.

I will never not reskeet this

preaching to the choir and all, but this gave me a chuckle

Bit of a wild card. Got the urge to start reading this again back in September. Then forgot about it and finished it today. Lowkey fucked my reading speed stat on StoryGraph 😭 #reading #amreading #booksky 💙📚 #manga

Not getting the bus into work is doing wonders for every part of my life other than how many books I read 😂 This is my first step into cozy fantasy and I love it! It can be weird dealing with modern foods or devices in fantasy but Baldree pulls it off nicely #fantasy #booksky 📚💙 #reading #amreading

I can’t believe you lefty Luddites hate tech so much that you embrace mRNA vaccines, heat pumps, electric bikes, hybrid work, renewable power (and awesome advancements in storage), space telescopes, and hot/cold running water but reject the planet destroying plagiarism enrich the worst people bots!

Did you know there's a really autistic way to spend Valentine's day? #Pokémon #PlayPokémon #EUIC

Oh boy, maybe I'm getting the series finished just in time for Winds of Winter! Never know, might be any day now! In all seriousness, still a cracking read and such a shame the TV series couldn't have done this justice in the end #reading #amreading #fantasy #fantasyreaders 📚💙 #booksky #darkfantasy

Throughout a career in publishing, the commonest problem I’ve found in authors trying to break into the business is their fear of taking themselves seriously. If that’s you, try this. (Little thread follows.) 1. Remove “aspiring” or “would-be writer” from your bio. Replace it with “writer.”

First book slap of 2026! On my very own coffee table! 😎 Also see my Pokémon cards #reading #amreading 💙📚 #booksky #bookslap #fantasy #fantasyreaders
