I did not catch this at all! Every time Rockwell mentioned his dead son, I never put 2+2 together that this was Kayβs son too. That her career derailment was from grief, and probably Rockwellβs bankrolling the play was also a way of diverting her grief rather than tackling grief together.
This is not writing. Do not let people express this delusion in your face.
Worth remembering when looking at the horrific scenes in the US right now that both Reform and the Tories have pledged to bring in ICE-style organisations to the UK if they win power
So sad to learn that Nora Ikstena has died aged 56. Soviet Milk is an exceptional novel that had a profound effect on me. If youβve not read it, I urge you to pick it up. Itβs slim but devastatingly effective.
Imagine if they just subsidized newspapers and magazines the way theyβre subsidizing this slop
Yes, I have and I believe itβs real.

Hi there! Guttingly, there have been some delays getting stock to bookshops, but they're working to fix that asap! In the meantime (if you're partial to them) ebooks and audiobooks are available. Thanks so much for trying!
How is this not front page news?

Happy publication day to @holly.bsky.social and @orionbooks.bsky.social for #59Minutes

Itβs every authorβs dream for our books one day to be sold βby the footβ

The book cover for 59 MINUTES by Holly Seddon shows an hourglass with yellow sand on a blue background and the tagline: an hour until the world ends. What would you do?
I don't think I took a single breath during the first half of this book. 59 Minutes is one of the best stories I've read in a while, with a twist that is SO perfectly executed, I never saw it coming. Out on the 25th from @holly.bsky.social
Vikki, thank you so, so much! π
Thank you so much!

BBC News headline: Frankenstein is monster success at Venice film festival
Actually, Frankenstein is a doctor success at the Venice film festival
This is why I struggle with "legitimate concerns," people have no actual idea what's going on
