I thought it might be nice to give away my last 2 signed hardbacks of my novel 1983, with two lovely linocut hares by my mum.

All you have to do to enter is repost this (& leave a reply).

The book's been called "Stranger Things rewritten by Kurt Vonnegut and Sue Townsend”.
Extract in the replies.

I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve seen a Kingfisher irl. Thrilled to get an opportunity to watch this little fella zipping & glittering his way up and down the Water of Leith this morning.

Perused the sales after the gym. Very few nice clothes or items that fit me. So I opted for a scarf (which is fine because they are really hard to grow out of.) 🧣🤳🏼
