I find it fascinating that no-one has yet got their hands on a copy of 'Agents of Secrets and Lies', and yet we're at No. 6 in Amazon's Steampunk Science Fiction bestsellers list. Thank you for pre-ordering, young warriors. #SummerRealm

Bookcover for The Summer Realm Book 1, Agents of Secrets and Lies by Michael Wombat, Victoria Pearson, Lisa Shambrook and Miranda Kate. It depicts a grey parrot with a bright red tail, grey and black-tipped wings open, flying over a snow-topped mountain range under a clear blue sky. It's framed by brass cogs and boiler plates. Screencap of our book at No. 6 in said list.

I've always been a bit of a duckhead
A long-haired, bearded layabout in an unbuttoned denim shirt in the 1970s, playing guitar in front of striped blue/black curtains. On his head is a hat shaped like an orange duck.

Selfie checkpoint blah blah blah.
All self-consciousness gone.

Grassy arse.
Me some years back, waist deep in tall grass. Me a bit older, waist deep in tall grass. Me even older, waist deep in tall grass.

(why not post your own four pics from your life, too?)
A gawky boy leaning on a stone wall looking out over the sea. A handsome young chap with a beard and a woolly hat in front of a stone wall and green hills. Middle-aged old git in some woods, wearing a daft orange hat. An old man now, drinking from my favourite 'Rollie' mug.

Do these count for #SundayPixBooks? My hand-scribbled notes for weird stories.

I've been watching Ad Astra with Brad Pitt, Tommy Lee Jones, Donald Sutherland and oh my god what an achingly slow mess of a movie. It rarely makes sense (hey, let's keep a gun in our deep space capsule), and I can't understand why so many famous actors took part.
