Wolf-whistled today for the first time ever. I’m worried it was ironic, but even so: thank you Man On The Street Literally Half My Age. You gave me a good giggle on my way home from the gym!

Made the massive error of reading some reviews of my book on Goodreads. Conclusion: it is NOT FOR WRITERS. Stay away. We aren’t strong enough. It’s the Hunger Games in there. If you need me, I’m dead behind a hedge.

Today years old when I realised that Emperor Hadrian also thought crocodiles were super cool. Has his own life size statue of one at his villa! The man was clearly a good person.

Heard within an hour of coming home:
1) what do you MEAN, I didn’t tell you he has cancer? Don’t be stupid. He’s ninety, he’s riddled with cancer.

A friend just messaged me to say he couldn’t have a call on Saturday because he had to go to a craft fair and then a sex party, and now I’m worried I haven’t been doing my life right…

I give custom endpapers to books that I particularly adore. Suffice to say that The Hymn To Dionysus by @natashapulley.bsky.social is more than deserving.

A hardback edition of The Hymn to Dionysus by Natasha Pulley. The photo shows the cover (a greek mountain city design in black, blue, and gold) and a hint of the endpapers within. The endpapers have a dark blue background and a pattern of swirling golden leaves and flowers

A clearer view of the endpapers, showing the full design.

A view of inside the book, showing a section of pages partially lifted to reveal the endpaper beneath

Another angle of the hardback book with the cover slightly lifted to show the endpapers

I love it and now I’m grumpy that I don’t have my own enormous lovely statue to watch over the old book collection…why did I not budget for this essential expense???

See, I grew my hair long and dyed it blonde and started wearing eyeliner to disguise myself as a human, but as you can see here, I am actually a Dorkosaurus Rex who learns ancient languages for fun. Raaar *stomps roaring through New York*
