Flipped by Tracey Hawthorne - My View by Robyn Sassen and other writers
Flipped, Tracey Hawthorne's debut novel, published by Modjadji Books is unputdownable, clever and sharply focused.

This critic says of my novel, "Read it, even if you never read books at all." Well, you heard her 😉

I went to a Christmas party. The dress code was "Festive", so I wore a bright red dress, jingle-bell earrings and a giant red hair bow. I was the only person who dressed up. Everyone else was wearing shades of beige and subtle jewellery 😳

This is Asura. Today he left me two gifts: a dead rat in my shower and a pile of vomit on my work chair.

Starve a cold
Feed a fever
Hug a heart condition
Fund a fungal infection
Deprive a deviated septum
Party with pancreatitis
Beg a basal cell
Ignore an influenza
Seduce some shingles
Insult impetigo
I could do this all day.

The Mellencamp/Ndegeodello cover of Wild Night is such a great cover, mostly, of course, due to Me'Shell Ndegeocello's bass and vocals. She hits a perfect line to work with Kenny Aronoff's drums.

We're soon moving into a panhandle which will have no street view. My pets are going to miss keeping an eye on the neighbours.

This guy, Yoyo, is a wanderer and is seldom seem. Our winter rains have finally begun (after the driest summer in ages) and he came in last night to loll about on the back of my sofa. I feel so honoured.

If you ever think English is not a weird language just remember that read and lead rhyme and read and lead rhyme.
But read and lead don't rhyme, and neither do read and lead.
