My son Thomas sent me a video this morning which he made for my birthday, and he said he would be happy for me to share it. I think it's great but I may not be completely impartial.

To give you an idea of how deranged the UK has become about gender stuff, here's Enid Blyton - the absolute avatar of classic English conservatism and a huge fan of racist "gollywogs" - casually describing a gender non-conforming kid in the 1940s and having their friends be totally cool with it.

I mean, this is also just a general invitation.
I'm filling out my very overdue KS surveys for lovely books. If you see my name pop up as a returned survey but you've already given me my book, I'm just housekeeping. But please, you have license to curse my name.

Award nominating season is a boiling cauldron of imposter syndrome for me.
But I did two books this year and if you liked reading them as much as I liked making them, please consider nominating them for things.
DC's MISFITS OF MAGIC and THE OCTOBER GIRL Book One.
I'm so proud of them.

Our Dan Dare Kickstarter is now launching 1 March 26 - visit the page to register your interest!
The pesky demands of other projects has meant we’re not quite ready. We don't want to drip-feed @marclaming.bsky.social @alexdecampi.bsky.social preview pages, so we're going to postpone our launch until 1 March. Trust us it’ll be worth the wait. #dandare
