Gah sorry I didn’t see this, nor did I even see your post (the algorithm!). I’ll have a look over on Reddit and see if I can find it!

Duuuuude! Your book is amazing! And I hope PubTips is helpful ❤️

🤣 in my dreams! (As a speaker). I haven’t committed yet on attending this year to check out some of the talks, I’m missing most of the main book festival this year since we’ll be away, so would be nice to go to this one! You should totally come and visit one day!

It’s going to be okay! None of your betas are going to be mad, and we’ll be happy to help you 🔪⚔️ (couldn’t find the scissors anymore!) You’ve got this!!!

Happy birthday!!! 🎂

Wow are you kidding? Not cool… It doesn’t make much sense if you know about the market in those countries (for English language books in particular). Also please DM me the name because I’m nosey 🤣

Ahhhh that looks so good, it’s so tempting! But also very far away in time so no clue if I’ll be free that weekend.

Spent my day correcting Theodosius to Theodosios, Agathonicus to Agathonikos, and… Pulcheria to Poulcheria - following the editors’ wishes, even if it makes an empress sound like a hen… Almost ready to submit this monograph!

On habite en Écosse depuis 2021 et on est pas encore allés dans les Highlands, c’est bon à savoir parce que j’aimerais beaucoup emmener les filles, merci du tuyau!

Merci beaucoup pour le lien! Je devrais vraiment m’y mettre, je perds mon français (et mes filles de 7 et 10 ans ne le parlent pas/plus).

Je suis française (mariée à un anglais). Mais je suis expatriée depuis 2006. Je n’ai pas encore rencontré de francophones dans mon coin mais j’entends beaucoup de français quand je vais à Edinburgh!

I’d been meaning to join to escape the Meta apps but it’s really the motivation of this event that made me go through the effort of making an account. It’s been so nice seeing everyone’s books and finding authors to follow!

Graduating From Dead Mom University In this op-ed, Lindsay Lee Wallace explores grief, and how no amount of success in school or work could protect her from it.

RFK Jr's move to eliminate the Administration for Community Living, which helps disabled & aging people stay at home instead of being institutionalized, is disastrous.
I'm never done shouting about what my mom's institutionalization took from her & from us (so here's my @teenvogue.com piece again).

Susanna Horenbout: Forgotten Female Artist at the Tudor Court Praised for her skill by such titans of the age as Albrecht Dürer, Susanna Horenbout worked for Henry VIII and his wives. This is her story.

Reflecting on publishing post 2020 drive to publish more Black voices - and where we are now:

Digital illustration of studio Ghibli Kodama spirits holding a flag: “If you claim to love Studio Ghibli but use the ChatGPT Ghibli image generator, then no. You don’t love Studio Ghibli. Even further, you fundamentally do not understand or respect Miyazaki and his art.”

It really is that simple❤️
#studioghibli #ghibli #hayaomiyazaki

Thank you ☺️

That is so productive of you! Also still very congested and had a horrible night… But there’s always writing to do…

I remember you from the Jericho 500, great opening!

Cigarettes being stimulants, it makes a lot of sense that many adhders would find they offer some benefit. (I have terrible memories of redbull + cigarettes at night to write my essays during my MSt, before coming to the UK, since redbull was illegal in France, it was whole pots of black tea)

In 16th-century Venice, a young woman aspiring to make her mark as a publisher steals a magical manuscript from the library of the French ambassador, ensnaring her in a deadly game of diplomacy, deceit, and forbidden love. #scotwriterpitch2025

Cutting #disability benefits will increase mental health issues, hasten #disabled people's deaths & put huge pressure on the #NHS, social workers, homelessness orgs, @citizensadvice.bsky.social & more. And it won't increase the number of #accessible jobs. Here are some ideas for ethical alternatives

The pressure to publish more and faster was one of the most frustrating things about working in publishing. If I could say ONE thing to the publishing industry about how to make things better, it would be this: do not publish anything you are not going to support well with marketing.

Ancient Greek and Roman statues often smelled like roses, a new study says Ancient Greek and Roman statues didn't originally look like they do now in museums. A new study says they didn't smell the same, either.

Today’s work: flip-flopping on some Greek edition decisions because I can’t ever trust my philological skills to go against early 20th century editors, and revising a scene of my novel where my main protagonist kept repeating “what do you mean?” to the Spanish ambassador she’s meant to seduce. 😓

Congrats! Sounds like the chopping is going well ✂️

Finally made an account 😅 I just move at sloth-speed…

Ooof don’t mince your words eh! I didn’t think memoir was the largest output of the self-publishing market. Seems he just wanted to send a cheap shot at memoirists…

This applies for most things in the news these days…
