UNBOUND AUTHORS: Leftover copies of your books in the UK (MacMillan) warehouse will be pulped within the next week or two. DM me for a link to the warehouse stock list and contacts.

If you have no dosh, another publisher (Wilton Sq) is willing to buy the books & distribute on a 50/50 profit split

There's a little in-office happy hour this evening and it says no special occasion but I'm pretty sure the occasion is "no meetings with the Americans this evening", so I'm thankful for that.

In the BIG screen at the cinema for Wicked Part Two and it is pretty full on a weeknight.
I think I'll enjoy it more with a big audience, it's a Spectacular.

Use, and I cannot state this enough, libraries. UK/RoI authors get paid for library borrows. More than you'd think!
I’m just going to block anyone attempting to justify or excuse pirating books. Times are hard, yes, but absolutely NO ONE needs to steal books. Libraries exist. There are umpteen works legitimately in the public domain. You don’t need to take income from authors trying to scrape a living.

Book club tomorrow and it's a book of short stories so I'm going to do "read a story, do a little job, read a story" and NOT stop in the middle of any of the stories.

The whole book is like 170 pages and I'm not going anywhere today so it should be fine.

Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪

Buying #Christmas cards or presents?

Shop with small independents (like me) instead of the big high street names.

My most popular cartoon by a long chalk is also oddly niche, in that it mostly appeals to a generation who remember the song it refers to and enjoy the nostalgia for their youth. I can draw one for you if you like.

It honestly does seem to me that Labour should raise income taxes, including on people like me. I am willing to pay my share if it means some hope of a functioning state that can achieve things rather than lurch perpetually from one crisis to another forever in damage mitigation mode.

To quote one of the extended project team members in the very early planning stages of this: "We're NASA. This is what we're supposed to do." Just matter-of-factly in a telecon trying figure out how do this…

Once upon a time when I was making a silly steampunk podcast I cast Guy as A Ridiculously Handsome Fiance and he was very good at it, there was a scene that was just 'Happiness eats a biscuit for an overly long time' and he smashed it

Do Americans call it BOGO?
Buy one get one isn't a deal, that's just how shopping works.
BOGOF is a deal, and most importantly it's fun to say!
