I just finished and absolutely loved North Continent Ribbon by @yarntheory.bsky.social. The fastest I’ve read a book in yonks. What a joy. Creative and dark and loving and hopeful all at once. Also with a beautiful cover by @treelet.bsky.social.

Narrative deduction games! ✨🔎📖
That's the term I'm using for games like Obra Dinn, Golden Idol, and Roottrees, where using story information is how you progress. Aka the best genre!

Hey UK, my reality-bending mother-daughter-found-family-multiverse novel is on sale on Kobo. It's about being lost, trying to find the best version of you (literally), the mysteries of our parents, neuroparasites, murder and features two of my favourite characters I've ever written in Dom and Amber

The people who think you only learn from failure and that coaching is just about examining your own faults because there is no mental gain without mental pain are the same people that think AI will replace therapists.

This is what happens when your heart is so fetid, so broken that you cannot feel empathy any more. When cruelty becomes your only motivation. A truly poisonous human being. I’m deeply sorry for every book I bought or film I saw.
See the movies or don't, read your kids whatever you want, but this self-portrait of a gloating hatemonger is the identity she has chosen.
