@brookmyre.bsky.social been enjoying the playlist for The Cliff House today! Also enjoyed the book which I finished last night, been in a bit of a reading slump recently - keep starting books then losing interest. This definitely kept me entertained until the end!

@stephenking.bsky.social Currently reading From A Buick 8 and it struck me that, in several of your books, dog poisoning occurs (or almost occurs). Just wondered if it's something that happened to you IRL or an example of writing about the worst thing you can think of so it never happens to you?

Happy PLR Day to everyone who celebrates! And readers, remember that not only do libraries give you access to a wide selection of books for free, the Government also pays authors a small sum for every time one of their books is borrowed from a public library... #ThisWritingLife
