One Monday morning, Horace Norton finds that a mouse has made a house in his hat. 🎩
What will Mr Norton do when, as the week progresses, the animals take over his bathroom, his bed - and even HIS BEARD?!
Mr Norton's New Hat by @huwlewisjones.bsky.social and Corey Egbert is coming this March!

The most important thing in writing is to finish. A finished thing can be fixed. A finished thing can be published. A finished thing can be made into a movie.
An unfinished thing is just a dream. And dreams fade if you don't hold on tight enough.
So finish the thing.

Took my students on an edgelands field-trip today, following running water against its flow, from city centre to the springs where it rises.
The social lives of water; river as agent, presence, organiser.
Cold, crisp winter light.
As the day died, we found this strange sign.
Backwards in two senses.
