Perfect combination! Silent reading at the craft beer shop with #Dumplin’ by @andimjulie.bsky.social and a lush rhubarb sour 😋 My favourite night of the week.

Yes, Trump's tariffs will hurt US consumers in the short term, but, you should focus on the long term, where it will also hurt them.

In the middle of all this we're still reading books, which is more than okay. We need books now more than ever. #BookSky

And it would be much better if I typed Chris’s account correctly …. (@chris-Callaghan.com. Therefore he gets a second shoutout 🤦🏻‍♀️
A big thank you to all the amazing children’s authors and illustrators who have helped my own children become book dragons. (And a special shoutout to some of my fave northerners @gabriellekent.bsky.social, @dansmithauthor.bsky.social and @chris-callghan.com)

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Dear Bluesky. I wonder if you can help? I have 100 copies of this book, each of which I'm happy to send to anyone in the UK for £4 postage, plus a donation of your choice (however low). Please drop me an email with your address at hello@tom-cox.com if you'd like one. P.S. I promise it's not shit...

Had some authors asking whether it's worth registering for @alcs.co.uk - YESSSSSSSS. You get little payments for so many uses of your work eg photocopying, secondhand purchases via World of Books, audiovisual fees - & all those payments add up.
