"Convicted Felon" should be a courtesy title like "Nurse" or "Professor".

I'm writing down some aviation history, "connecting the dots" so to speak.

Now that I've fled Leon's site for bluer skies, I'm sure I'll be called an #Ex-X, but personally, I'll always consider myself a #TwitterQuitter.

Thanks to all the amazing librarians on Bluesky I am currently walking into my local library that I have never visited despite living in this town for seven years.

Given people are actually interacting on here (madness), please could you give me your recommendations for the best legal thrillers (books, film, drama)? I’ve already read/seen loads but I need more.

Time for my daily overshare!

I was a ghostwriter for a long time. Long enough to have written 20 books no one will ever know came from me.

Today is the first day that I haven’t had an edge of guilt connecting with other writers.

I’m not a fraud. I’m a goddamned published author, & I did it my way

I'm still very lost on here. The poets have organized and gathered, but with my weird threads and random interests on twitter. This starter pack is an attempt to include some of those names, though many are missing. Just a messy attempt.🙏

We need a book twitter list too?

Look I’m just a girl with a PhD and some data who testifies to legislative committees full of men who tell me CO2 is plant food and the climate’s always changing and now you want me to stand up for pasteurized milk, Darwin, and the germ theory of disease? Sure. But you’re gonna need more biologists.

I like that people introduce themselves here. I'm an author & journalist in Glasgow. I've written books on graveyards & churches, & am busy writing a new one that I'm looking forward to sharing. I enjoy: standing stones, fallen leaves, old records, old books & an old rabbit of whom I have the care.

“Yesterday I visited my son's school and I saw a bright colored bench in the yard. I asked if it was new.

He said to me, ′′no, that's the ‘friend’s bench.’ When someone is down, they'll sit there so others find them."

To me, that’s how finding Bluesky feels.

Follow us if you’d like a friend! 💙

I just learned that Goodreads is owned by Jeff Bezos. An alternative is StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform (and yes it's really easy to transfer your lists from Goodreads to StoryGraph). You know, while we're moving things.

Public library attacks are coming to your local library. Get a card & use it, or you might just lose it.

I don't know who needs to hear this, everyone I think, but if you send a PDF to your kindle and put 'convert' as the subject it will change it to epub format for you, you're welcome

(I posted this on the other place and was surprised by how many people it helped so thought I'd do it here too.)
