I don’t think it will all fit in there.
Sign on public storage building with lights burnt out in several letters, leaving “Public rage.”

The only thing that would warrant a How to Train Your Dragon live-action remake is the discovery of actual dragons

Outline for #EdNoWriMo is prepped and ready. Can't wait for it to fall apart in week two and turn into something completely different

@lyndseycroal.bsky.social loves delving into Scottish myths and folklore to find the dark stuff. Here, for Halloween, she introduces us to 10 of her favourite fearsome creatures.

Our November is stacked with events for our writing month, #EdNoWriMo: weekly Zoom & daily writing sessions (online + IRL) and an all day in-person write-in on the 24th. Many of us will also be at @cymeraf.bsky.social’s Writers Conference on the 9th. Our next Social will be in December. 🚀🤖

Really enjoyed catching up with local SFF writers yesterday at the @edinburghsff.com social. Top writing chat, some fantastic news & loved hearing what everyone’s working on. Always leaves me feeling inspired. Great turnout, too. Find a group of writers you can hang out with. It’s a massive boost.

A busy Friday night reorganising my bookshelves in the desperate hope I might find some extra space to fit the three waist-high stacks next to it.

Edinburgh based folks and beyond; have your say in the link about a potential visitor levy for Edi and where the funds should go - potentially to support community groups and organisations? 👀
