I worked harder on this book than any before it. My ex-publisher then failed to pay me what they owed me for it & did their best to ruin its chances of survival. That robbed me of a year of my life & ruined my health.
After all that, to see reviews like this one brings me close to tears too.

Bloody hell! It’s been a long time since a book has brought me to tears. @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social Thank you so very much for writing Everything Will Swallow You. Book of the year. #BookSky #TheStorygraph

I truly believe that Wes Streeting has the ideas, the charisma, and the likeability to be an even more historically hated Prime Minister than Keir Starmer

The only difference between conspiracy theorists and audiophiles is that the latter are harmless. Mad as a box of frogs but harmless.

I'm 2 followers off 1.5K. I'd have more of that if I didn't block all the suspiciously lady-only-following accounts, but it would be nice to reach the next milestone. So if you're interested in TTRPGs, sketching, memes and snark, I'm yer woman.
Here's a Godzilla meme to tempt you in.

Members are being asked to approve measures to employ outside consultants a transformation and efficiency programme. The cost of this? Up to £5 million.

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market.
This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.
A question to consider however, how often in those times when the major world empire self-destructed & fell into the hands of rabid fools did said rabid fools have enough firepower to physically destroy all life on Earth with systems set up & ready for them to do so without a moment's thought?

Always been a massive Iain Banks Fan - I own many signed 1st editions; but when he died I set aside his last books for later.
I’m reading Surface Detail as a warm up for the Hydrogen Sonata and fuck it’s good… prescient even.

The biggest thing i've learned as an artist who sells prints and merch is don't make what people ask for. They won't buy it. Make what you, the artist, want to see printed on the support of ur choice.
I can't explain why but THAT'S what will sell. People who buy the most are the silent ones. 🫶

Remember, artists: when people say, “I’d buy a print of this,” they don’t mean it. That sentence itself is just a weird compliment that rarely converts to an actual print sale. It’s like if someone ate a very good hot dog and then said, “I could eat 10,000 of these right now.”

Let's raise some money for Oz! I've got a Christmas Red Gobbo, painted by me, with some flame effect, that could be yours. I'll start it as a blind auction, DM me with offers over £50 and the highest by the end of the weekend wins. I'll pay for postage in the UK and all the money goes to Oz.
