I wish I could forget playing Sub Nautica so I could play it for the first time again

I may have managed to sneak some poetry in...
I think we need A League of Fantasy Murder Mystery Writers (The LoFMMW) to be ready to solve the inevitable baffling murder at FCon.
Definitely a good idea - especially as they're holding it in Midsomer next year.
This is A Good Book!
Loved this, and Iβve got the quote to prove it!
I've read this and GUYS it's so good

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! (Tade is the best) β¨οΈ
Saw Wuthering Heights. Can't believe Wuthering dies of a broken heart. Such a ripoff of Star Wars.
I did the thing! I emailed, cold, the author of a book I liked to tell them it was good, and to say thanks. Know what? That's a good idea. You were all correct. Everyone should do that.
I would like to politely remind anyone who can nominate that I had a novel out last year, The Heist Of Hollow London.

dazzled by this
The cover of 'writing for young people' by Elen Caldecott. A blue background, with illustrated stationery flying out of a box.
It is a NEW BOOK DAY! 'Writing for Young People', by me, is an accessible look at how fiction for children and young adults is crafted. In eight chapters, we take a DEEP DIVE into picturebooks, MG and YA with AUTHOR INTERVIEWS and WRITING EXERCISES #kidlit #ukkidlit uk.bookshop.org/p/books/writ...
You could get 15 of me for that price, damn.
Step aside, Hemingway. The five word short story has just dropped.
Just started it - what a book! Wow!
Right?? We are starved for events out here
Hiya! Do I know anyone who's planning on attending NORWESCON this year?
