Lots of talk today about the demise of BlueSky. For whatever it's worth, it's been a boon to indie publishers like us. Twitter and Facebook have pretty much silenced us, so the engagement here has, and continues to be, wonderful.

@scottishgovernment.bsky.social @glasgowcitycouncil.bsky.social Please help your homeless. It is sub zero temperatures outside with freezing fog. Passers-by are giving hot food & drinks but they need lifted off the streets. You did it during the pandemic, why can't you now. Someone is going to die.

I do. I use all three. Paper for comfort reading, ebooks for convenience and audio books for listening to when I'm doing something else at the same time (ie knitting, cooking)
I'm going to blow your mind: It is possible for the same person to enjoy paper books, ebooks, AND audiobooks, all for different reasons and at different times.

Looking forward a talk with Moira McPartlin at the Bridges Scotland conference, 27th Nov at the SEC Glasgow.
The subject is our collaboration about mass concrete viaducts, part of the Victorian railway infrastructure built at the end of the 19th century.

I love the fact that this morning my meditation app #Headspace gave a session on how to get rid of the negatives in life and remember the Blue Sky behind the clouds. #meditation #readingtheroom

I'm just getting started here. I'm looking forward to a timeline of books, poetry, travel, culture, and caring. Here is a photo from a recent trip to El Chorro, Spain.
