I wrote a book about a boy in Charleston who defeats a Confederate demon. If you need a bit of hope, pick it up!
It has a great audiobook too!

Zelenskyy stood up to the bullies in the Oval Office today - Slava Ukraini!
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk responds, something we hopefully see a lot more of that from other European leaders. It's never been clearer than in this moment that Trump is Putin's ally, not Europe's.

As I understand it, Starmer is not there to seek a trade deal with the US: he’s trying to stop Trump imposing large tariffs, that would negatively impact our economy. And so far 🤞he’s done v well.

Hi, just a reminder that when you use Libro.fm for your audiobooks, you support independent bookshops vs. large corporations that drive them out of business.
We also pay taxes. And so do indie bookshops.
