This is just fabulous 👏👏👏 So many people have been working so hard behind the scenes to show law makers why they need to uphold the copyright laws already in place. We're not there yet, but the message is getting through. And the DeepSeek news is the ultimate irony.

I'm so excited to hear this news. Our Gifted Hearts - a debut by the talented Jennifer Kennedy is heading our way in October 25 Described as a gripping revinvention of a classical tale, blending dark intrigue with the gothic feel of Mexican Gothic and The Silent Companions I can't wait to read.

I'm back to writing magic and witchcraft 😊 The heart of this manuscript is home but fragrance seems to becoming important. What is your favourite duo or trio of smells? Those that make you happy with just a whiff, those which evokes memories, love or describe you? #bookrsearch

It is said to “Not judge a book by its cover”, but it is often the very thing that draws us to a book! My eyes often drift over to my bookcases & it is the spine or cover of a book that takes me on a journey back to the words written within. Let’s share & celebrate our favourites📚💙#booksky

Today's tea is Lavender Chamomile. It's a delicate herbal blend. It's floral, subtle, and delicious. I'm listening to We Are The Crisis. A fantasy werewolf novel. It's the sequel to No Gods. No Monsters. #teaismagic #booksky 🩵📚 ☕️🫖

A book I adored this year

Things my 8yo bookworm said on the way to school. 1. Sometimes I get out of breath from reading 2. It’s like you’re a shape, and books can be really good, but some of them don’t fit you. Like you’re a hexagon and they’re an oblong.

Word of the day is ‘forswunk’ (13th century): exhausted by work. I like to add ‘foreswunk’, exhausted before you even begin.

Etymology of the day: before a tapering piece of hanging ice was called an ‘icicle’ it was an ‘ickle’. In the Middle Ages people decided to add ‘ice’ for extra oomph and (tautologically) called it an ‘ice ickle’, until the two words eventually blended together.

Bit of a reverse Black Friday tip. Go buy a book from an independent bookshop. While the richest companies in the world have another bonanza, put a smile on the face of a struggling writer and bookseller. Thank you x

I loved this book. It's one that gives you a book hangover and the characters remain forever in your soul

You know what would really disrupt the publishing industry? Fair contracts and decent pay for authors. No AI training without the creator’s consent. Artists and translators on the cover. No NDAs for ghostwriters.

If you love #JonathanBailey in #Wicked, you might like to know he appears as gorgeous Jack Dixon in the audiobook of my summer love story, #SomewhereBeyondTheSea. So if you fancy eleven hours of Mr B being a funny, sweet, brilliant romantic hero, check it out! www.audible.co.uk/pd/B078H3ZF9S 💙📚

Gluten free food is always expensive and often boring but £4 for 8 tiny truffles is a tad ridiculous @tescoofficial.bsky.social No matter how nice they maybe the price can't be justified to be bought again.
