A less than subtle reminder that I'll be appearing at the #maltacomiccon on the 8th and 9th November at the Eden Arena. I hope to meet some of you there. I'll be taking part in the Manga and Animation panel.

Happy 71st anniversary #GodzillaDay
Celebrating with these Yamakatsu sofubi I picked up in 1984 (the same day I saw Nina Simone at legendary jazz club, Ronnie Scott's) and looking forward to #GodzillaMinusOne director Takashi Yamazaki visiting here in Norway when he films #GodzillaMinusZero

The upside to living in the country as a writer: sitting on the veranda at 6 a.m watching the sun rise and hit the trees, and listening to the deer bark out a territorial scuffle in the field below while drinking a passable coffee for a late night/early morning shift.

Whoever said that living in the countryside would be peaceful and good for writing has never had a farmer roaring up and down in the field next to the house from midnight to 2 a.m., in a whining tractor with every bolt rattling and lights flashing like SFX from Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind.

Let’s be clear. He sold $2.4 billion of his stock the day before he announced tariffs. He’s now crashing the stock market deliberately. He will then buy stock when it’s fallen through the floor. All this is is him stiffing everyone to get richer. That’s it.

A beautiful day deserves a spin of Hiromi Iwasaki's 1980 gem of city pop, Wish. Her gentle, easy vocals are surrounded by top West Coast musicians who played regularly with Steely Dan and James Taylor.
As smooth as an afternoon drive along the PCH.
