LOVE this review of Radiohead's first gig in seven years, by Stephen Phelan in Madrid. Also: what an amazing run of songs in the encore. www.theguardian.com/music/2025/n...

Two of my friends, @lesleymcdowell.bsky.social and Mairi Kidd (book just out) have been inspired to pen novels about Mary’s time in Dundee and how that influenced the novel. Do seek them out.

Wow. Blown away. KING SORROW is fantastic. Fantasy, horror, gritty crime elements, Joe Hill effortlessly navigates a sweeping epic that can't be confined to a single genre. I absolutely loved this. #booksky

Back home from the book signing, King Sorrow is a huge book, gonny take me a while to read it. Joe Hill looks so much like his dad I'm beginning to wonder if Stephen King has a portrait in his loft.😁
