Thanks so much Nick!!
A pacy thriller with great characterisation of people, place and eras, and a dark belter of a twist I didn't see coming! Congrats to @lucynichol.bsky.social on her latest triumph, Girls To The Front, which I devoured in just two sittings ...

Devoured in one sitting. So much to commend. The righteous feminist fury, the deft flitting from past to present, the descriptions of straightened childhoods, the sprinkling of magic. Came for the grunge; stayed for the plot. Bravo, @lucynichol.bsky.social
Beside myself with excitement for the new book by @lucynichol.bsky.social , ‘Girls To The Front’, a found footage feminist revenge thriller soundtracked by Riot Grrrl bands. Loving the cover - designed by Chris Bigg of 4AD fame. Book sourced by Yorkshire’s finest bookshop, @jebookshull.bsky.social

Anyone else’s cat have a side of the bed?

So my legs get hot and I like to stick my feet out of the duvet. But Dennis the cat REFUSES to lie on the inside and, even if my arse is literally hanging off the side of the bed, he’ll find a way to move back to his outer side of the bed!? Over and over…

Thank you Nick! Hope you enjoy it!
Happy publication day to @lucynichol.bsky.social as Girls To The Front flies out into the world! Suitable soundtrack sorted ...

This book was published today and is brilliant. I felt so strongly about it that I’m quoted on the cover.
Help!

Amazon have taken almost all copies of my new indie book GIRLS TO THE FRONT as stock & it’s a fortune to re-print so we need to sell them!

So if you fancy a 90’s found footage feminist revenge thriller w/a cover designed by Chris Bigg (4AD) pls stick a pre order in

Out NEXT WEEK. Link below

Has anyone on here (esp any hair professionals) used honey or apple cider vinegar on damaged hair to moisture or lighten it??

Is it worth a shot?? I can’t find anything negative online other than it only lightens by a very small amount (but also that you can mix with cinnamon!?)

LinkedIn sent me a notification to say it looked like I was making good use of the app and asked if I was enjoying it.

I answered not so much. Then it asked me why.
