Happy book birthday @clareashton.bsky.social! Discovering Nicola is out today!
I'm in love with this book (ARC). I'm only at 42% because life, work and kids, but it's so good. Nicola's pants are on fire, Geeta's finding herself post divorce, they are *gasp* becoming friends. 🌈📚

A family friend found this vintage Ladybird 1000-piece jigsaw in a charity shop and gave it to me.

Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

They STOLE all of my books. Years of my life, my soul to sell their apps to people who then use AI for "plotting" or to "brainstorm ideas"...
If you're using AI for all those "innocent" things, you're stealing, from me, from my fellow authors. You're complicit.

🧵Spotted on an Evening Beach Walk in Aotearoa New Zealand:
Three women (50s?) have set up easels on the sand and are quietly chatting as they paint. One's doing a vibrant water colour. One's going for acrylics. One hasn't started yet, but is drinking a glass of wine, grinning at the view. (1)

🧵Spotted on a Rainy Market Day in Aotearoa New Zealand:
A serious looking woman (40s?) in a green raincoat asks a florist: "Do you have any flowers that say 'you shit me, but I love you anyway?"
The florist pauses, looks thoughtful, then nods decisively. "Yeah. I think I can manage that." (1)

In winter through early spring, you can sometimes find unspoiled, still-bright groundcherries sitting in the latticed remnants of their husks, like hearts suspended in paper ribcages

Fun fact: If someone quotes a post of yours in a way that is unwelcome (as is commonplace on Twitter/X) there is a tool to combat the unwanted attention. Simply click the three dot menu on the quote post & click "Detach quote". This removes your post from their quote post. Useful to know, do share!
