Addidas. They come in loads of colours tho the blue is best obvs. I don't think they realised it's a saltire. x

I talked to the Stewartry Society, signed books
@gallovidiabooks.bsky.social
and saw the wonderful exhibition about early 20th century queer history in the town, curated by DJ McDowell. Love it down there. Hi Kirkcudbright 👋

It's too long for that, I'm afraid. That's the advantage of FB. I thought about writing a newsletter instead but then folk have to sign up.

Sara Sheridan @sarasheridan.bsky.social · 5d

Love it. Cracking find, Dani. x

Sara Sheridan @sarasheridan.bsky.social · 5d

I'm using FB to give me more space once a week to talk about my writing life. Kind of like a newsletter that you don't have to subscribe to. This week: The Secret Mandarin has a new title and cover upcoming. Roll up, roll up and read all about it here: facebook.com/sheridanwrit...
