Today’s the seventh anniversary of the publication of When Two Sevens Clash. I still haven’t finished writing the sequel yet - probably never will now - but if you want the first book you can find it below and join an exclusive group.

The 2018 novel When Two Sevens Clash. The cover shows a punk rocker sitting in a deckchair drinking beer on a beach in 1977.

I’ve never felt so disheartened. My small business means everything to me and I want to keep going.
Please have a look at my website. Buy things, commission me or repost.

Thank you.

If I’m being honest, I’m feeling pretty crap about my small business.

It’s so bloody difficult at the moment with rising costs, US tariffs, Brexit nonsense and the threat of AI.

Please have a look at what I do and repost to spread the word gailmyerscough.co.uk

A selection of illustrations and commissions including an album cover design of a vintage radio, a book cover design with an illustration of George Harrison, architecture illustrations, a Listening Party turntable design, a music pattern design and a photo of me wearing glasses.

They do, no idea what they charge but I might have to consider it 🙄 I hope your cards turn up eventually - it’s an excuse for more cake 🎂 xx

Start a revolution! I mean birthday cards are important enough but like you say medical stuff or even any other appointments that are by post it’s a vital service and they charge enough for it. It must be happening a lot because I’ve had a few cards I’ve bought online delivered by Evri 🤷🏻‍♀️

I can’t believe that, it’s so bad. So a full week with no post for you. There’s no excuse for that. I know they tried to get away with it at my old house, they said unless there was any recorded delivery post they would not be in our area! There was uproar, it soon went back to normal.

September is Gynaecological Cancer Awareness Month.
There are 5 Gynaecological (Gynae) cancers and knowing the possible symptoms as well as being confident to talk about them could be a lifesaver.

Thank you so much lovely 😘😘😘 I’m currently sat on a bench looking out to sea, going to see some bands later. Watched the sunrise, what more could I want 😊 Your card arrived thank you. Hope yours does too - the order was delayed so I had to blow the budget and go 1st class 😂 xxx
