Stop calling your pets Marley, Loki and Luna, I'm begging you. Imagine what it's like when they get together. 'What's your name? No, way, same!'

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

What a beautiful print and what a great article written by Tom about his Mum Jo, the artist.
I have two - TWO - of these gorgeous original A4 meadow hare linoprints by my mum, Jo, to give away to a couple of lucky people here on Bluesky today.

Rules are simple: to be in with a chance to win, you just have to repost this piece I wrote about Jo and her art: www.tom-cox.com/the-magic-ro...

Zohran's campaign was his determination to make New York a city everyone can afford to live in. Huge congratulations!

His success will resonate throughout the world. A story where no one is left behind.

It's time to write that story across England & Wales too.

Powerful stuff of the new Dave album… goosebumps and sadly an all-too familiar story

Realising that you’re autistic can bring such clarity. You can now make sense of your life. You finally have answers

But it can also be disorienting and trigger feelings of grief. You spent your whole life misunderstood. Trying to be someone else

It takes time to unpack all that. And that’s ok ❤️

Krishnan Guru Murthy, "Isn't it a bit insulting to say to an Indian doctor who is working 60-70 hours a week that in order to get settled status he's got to volunteer?"

For the first time on Bluesky, it’s the #Glastonbury origin story of how the Other Stage got its name. And no, it’s not because it is full of edgy, alternative bands.

Only £100 to go until I hit my stretch target for my 100 kms solo walk of the South West Coast path in 2 weeks time. Please help me get over the line at www.justgiving.com/page/helen-m...
