Hi, just a reminder that when you use Libro.fm for your audiobooks, you support independent bookshops vs. large corporations that drive them out of business.

We also pay taxes. And so do indie bookshops.

Lovely vibe to this one from Jake Leslie. Indie rock with a groove!
My new single, Why SO Hard, to some archived AMS footage.

If anyone is interested in the archive footage link let me know.

Good morning, lovely people. A rather fetching dusting of snow over everything here in Somerset this morning.

Interesting first day on BlueSky. I’m a Brit 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 and I notice that compared to “X” it’s The Shire. Hello all you lovely, diverse people.👋

I've hit both 2K followers & 150 cites for my 1st book, Prostitutes & Matrons in the Roman World, so here's a fun fact! #GladiatorII reminds me of Commodus' real killers, inc. not Maximus but Marcia, a secretly pro-Christian concubine who dressed as a gladiator & was the most powerful woman in Rome.

Goodreads is owned by Jeff Bezos. A better alternative is StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform. And before y’all start, you can transfer all your Goodreads data to Storygraph so you literally have no excuse.
