More bad news in the games industry, Epic laying off about 900 people and Creative Assembly closing a big project and loosing people too. If you could spread the word, we have over 50 vacancies at present on our website!

The right side of the road to drive on is the left. You mount your horse from the left on cleaner ground, then ride off sword arm to sword arm. Anybody else doing differently was conquered by Napoleon and made to change. Ergo driving on the right is a mark of shame. Discuss.

#rebelliongate if you are following this, I've instructed the agency that applied for the over-broad mark that it must be modified to avoid any authors having to worry about using Rebellion in a book title. I hope we can all now get on with putting energy into making books.

After being chastised that testing weapons against stationary non-sentient targets is 'unrealistic' I replied that I agreed, but that it's surprisingly hard to find volunteers to act as testing targets for sharp weapons these days and arguably moderately unethical.

A gentle conversation with someone, 'that plant that smells minty when you rub a leaf in your fingers'. You mean mint, the plant, I'm very familiar with it. 'Yes I know it smells minty, but what's it called?' I gently emphasised, that, yes indeed it was mint, minty, mint.

Making YouTube content is a funny old game. I do it because I enjoy the process and like entertaining and informing people, and it gives me an excuse to be in the landscape in medieval kit. Recent videos have done OK in general. Then you release another, which you're pleased…
