And here it all comes, all the despicable official bigotry against trans people who are just trying to live their lives, while Bond villain billionaire wizard fiddlers smoke cigars in clueless White Lotus celebration. I’m so furious. Only thing I can do is use it to fight.

Our beautiful cat, Katniss, is missing! We've looked everywhere for her locally, plus have put up posters and local online adverts. We think she might have jumped in a car or van and ended up further afield. If you are in North London (NW5 and surrounds), please keep an eye out! details below.

Always so delighted to get my PLR statement. My *Ogres Don’t Dance* books are getting more popular as the years go by, not less! ❤️ I love that Ogden is still being enjoyed. (Want me to write you some more, @andersenpress.bsky.social ? 😁) #PLR #SupportLibraries

Here’s the deal: Make reading your hobby this year. It’ll expand your mind, grow your perspective, and if you grab a library card, you’ll be supporting authors too (yes, in places like the UK, AU, NZ, and Canada, libraries pay authors!). Reading isn’t just fun—it’s a win for everyone.

My Spotify Wrapped was all about Cosy Cottage Ambience this year, which makes me feel a lot better about my work ethic.

Cast a beady eye over my teen and tween’s chat group. They’re sharing sunrise pics from their bus journeys to school. So wholesome! Here’s my sunset pic.

My son told me to look at the sky, there’s a window into a brighter world. Maybe he’s right.
