Is there a difference between 'literary noir' and 'crime fiction'? What do we think? And where does 'cosy crime fiction' fit ? #Literarynoir #crimeficton #cosycrimefiction

How important are real locations? Some writers invent their own cities and towns ... both these books could only be set in Manchester .... no one does canals like we do .... (although Bridge starts over the Humber)...

'I read an earlier iteration of this book and read this version to see what had changed, noting I really liked the first version. It’s not so much a whole scale rewrite as a reimagining and re-emphasising of certain aspects of the original.' NetGalley Reviewer www.hitthenorth.co.uk/store/p/all-...

What's You Are One of Us all about. Read the press release. www.hitthenorth.co.uk/hit-the-blog... #Mottthehoople #IanHunter #Mott #BritishLions #GuyStevens #MottFest2025 #glamrock #DavidBowie #alltheyoungdudes

So, uh, it certainly looks like DOJ intended to file a letter to Judge Liman in MTA v. Duffy, but….it accidentally filed a letter containing its legal advice to the Department of Transportation instead storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Al gore is pissed off and I’m here for it

Bluesky is collegial and interesting, the way Twitter used to be. Bonus: most people can spell.

Fellow authors, I love you, and I know it feels like we don’t have a choice, but B&N and Am*zon both scheduled sales this week to preempt Independent Bookstore Day, a hugely vital source of income for indie bookstores. Please don’t promote their sales; please promote your local indie this week.

Our North East is bursting with talent and the world deserves to see it! #TB to last week and the amazing Mobos. What a night and a celebration of black music and culture, but it’s more than one night. It’s the legacy we build to inspire young people and show them that they can do it here!

Jim Acosta: I think the AP should consider whether or not to sue the administration… and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.

This is a book I hated buying. I am going to hate having to read it. This is a book where the author died fighting an illegal Russian invasion. Trump’s America is going to sell Victoria down the river. Hopefully Europe and the UK will try and ensure Victoria did not die in vain.
