All shares on this much-appreciated, obviously, as I doubt this experiment will come off it it doesn't hit the algorithm, and I'd *really* love to clear a path to my writing desk.
Here's a crazy idea: I've decided to give away 300 (300!) signed books on Bluesky today. Who knows if this will work but let's see, shall we? Be in the first 300 to reply to this & you can have one.(Limiting the offer to UK but happy to send overseas if people cover the postage.)

Bafflingly there are still people out there in the world who think being passionate about nature is “kind of weird”. or “a niche interest”. These people have it all wrong. Nature isn’t some quirky sideline to the main business. It IS the main business. Nature is us.
