Thank you, Neema! I think it's also super important for writers, because so many people don't think of creative rights as an ethical issue - but of course it absolutely is.

Oh wow, I had no idea. Khong Guan also make iced gems - which, as a kid I probably ate my entire bodyweight in - but without this picture. Amazing story behind it!

Go you! I realised I'd forgotten to add audiobooks at all, so I'm not even getting my nuppences 😂

Congratulations, Susmita! What a punch of a story too.

For me it's Feb-brutality, when the reality of all of January's overly optimistic resolutions comes crashing down (do I really want to be up at 4am every day of my life to "meditate"? No, and also NO).
