So my advice to a few of you who asked, don't be mad at the people who want and demand more than your body, mind, or heart can give because it's a drain on you. But remember you need to be your biggest and strongest advocate for your health, both physical and mental.

How it started. How it’s going.

If your work is rejected, it’s not because the editors hate you. It’s because it’s not working for them as they read it, or because it’s simply not what they want at that moment.

Both of these are on you: reflect, learn, revise. And make sure you read submissions guidelines.

Soooo… “life-changing news at the hospital” today… was Fallon (unknowingly) pregnant, do we think? #TheArchers

So we know that David, Michael and Catriona Mackenzie know the general plot of Good Omens. They have read the first three finished scripts, the draft of the last one and know about the ending. Episode 4 will be important apparently and MOST importantly 🧵 #goodomens

Hey, weekday crew: ICYMI, my Siberian monster story is listen-to-able here.

This remote, troubled town is basically one big “Do Not Enter” sign — so why do the tourists keep coming?

A question I often ask:
If separate male and female toilets are allegedly absolutely essential for health, welfare and dignity, why are disabled people expected to share just one toilet between all genders?

Today we remember Jack Cohen, distinguished biologist, co-author of the Science of the Discworld series, and valued Convention Guest, who passed away in 2019.
