I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Alan Carr on #TheTraitors is rapidly becoming my favourite contestant across all series. He’s having the most stressful time and it is superb tv.

Manchester is also full of spectacular street art so I very much enjoyed snapping some pics between conference activities.

Now en route home from a fantastic #icepops25 As the lone copyright officer in my institution, I benefit so much from the copyseek community and always come away with a ton of ideas.
Plus the John Rylands library is a beautiful place to get to explore.
