Found this photo again recently. 29 years ago I went up Mount Triglav in Slovenia. 2 days to get up. 1 day to come back down. Photo by my friend Dave Owen.

Yes. This. And assuming every query you have is because you are shopping for something (and not because you are interested in ... information.)

Just walked through Stratford upon Avon on a Friday evening and had a small pot of yoghurt hurled at me from a car. Possibly the most Stratford upon Avon kind of violence one can imagine. I'm thinking the yoghurt was probably live culture organic with a two star Great Taste badge.

Myles McLeod @mylesmcleod.bsky.social · Feb 28

It has. On a more positive note I thoroughly enjoyed your takedown of the Eurovision mascot atrocity.

If you haven't - please do fill this in. If you are a creative of any sort. The ALCS guidelines are very useful as the questions become more impenetrable. Also - you don't have to answer it all. www.alcs.co.uk/news/your-ri...

Your rights are under threat from AI. It’s time to have your say!

The Government recently launched a consultation on AI and copyright. Now is the time to have your say and make sure that legislators hear the concerns of creators.

Ah thanks! 🙌 This back cover idea was Greg’s 👍

Today on Book Cover Appreciation, The Brothers McLeod’s Knight Sir Louis

While the artistic style on the front cover delights, what really sets these covers apart are the Widescreen back covers. This is actually how all books should be. Somehow there feels like there is more space

@mylesmcleod.bsky.social Was out doing a spot of Christmas shopping and snagged #KnightSirLouis Cauldron of Chaos for Sami’s Christmas Eve box. I was flicking though and what did I spot?
It’s only a quote from Sami in the book! He’s going to be over the moon when he sees it. Thank you both so much 🥰
