I write books. They might not be your sort of thing but maybe you know someone who’d like them. They’re about middle-aged people falling in love.

I also work on other people’s books. The one on the right I am particularly proud of.

I post about writing, editing, and rocks, amongst other stuff.

I don't know why BLACK RIVER ORCHARD is on sale for two bucks at your favorite electronic bookmonger, but it is, so if you want a story of suburban folk horror (shut up it is too a thing) where a creepy cult of apple-eaters take over a town and begin, um, changing? Welp, go forth and get after it.

Interrupting my regularly scheduled programming to announce the happy news that the Baltic Sea froze over, generating vast surfaces suitable for long-distance skating. My old friend Jens Liljestrand and I took some time off to explore the edge of the archipelago today, and it was glorious ❄️❄️❄️

Great thread! 🏺🗃️
What an honour to speak at an event for the Earth Rover Program last week alongside some incredible people, almost none of whom seem to be on BlueSky except for @georgemonbiot.bsky.social

I spoke on soil health in ancient Mesopotamia, and here are some snippets of what I learned along the way

The book club scam has taken an exciting new leap forward. I got one today from a "curated literary platform and newsletter" that, unusually, offered a link to its website. I'm in edits, so obviously I took the opportunity to procrastinate. /1

The deadline for responding to this consultation (about whether we should shovel even greater heaps of bureaucratic misery onto immigrants in the hope of pacifying racists) is midnight on Thursday 12th:
The UK government is proposing radical and punitive changes to settlement rules. This is settlement, not citizenship. The consultation is open until 12 February; please respond to it and oppose these evil proposals. Amnesty have a good guide: www.amnesty.org.uk/resources/gu...

Last year I edited a book with two authors. Here they are talking about it.

It's definitely not for everyone but if you like this sort of thing... you might like it.

(The reel is SFW I think, the book is very much not.)

This made me laugh.
So I made a joke about a TV show called Goose Judge and then had to write a bit of the script. Some friends have, in the past, said I should write for TV. This should stop them from ever thinking that's a good idea again. Enjoy: GOOSE JUDGE: www.adampknave.com/2026/02/03/g...

Just a note: you need to unfollow first and then block
Whole lot of you following Neil Gaiman, and I assume it's because you forgot you did so and he stopped posting when it was revealed he is a rapist.

Since he's trying to make a return, do yourself a favour and check if you're following @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com and if so unfollow and block.
