While watching the Oscars the other night, this was what was outside my window while Ariana Grande was singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow. The sound of the wind chimes are mine. The voice is Ariana's. Sound on for this one.

Author Gary Indiana’s library came to Altadena. Hours later, it burned in the Eaton Fire
The late writer and critic’s archive – which is held by New York University – was not affected.

Dru Ann Love is sort of here - secured her domain but yet to sweep down the steps towards us all, wearing a floor-length cape, with two borzois in diamond collars at her side.
Still, loads of us know what a BFD it is that she said "superbly plotted and wickedly funny" about my new book. Chuffed!
