My post engagement has dropped to almost zero, new followers seem to be primarily "adult entertainment" bots and there are other reasons to be unhappy about this sm platform. So, I'm ducking out. I'll leave my x account live and check in occasionally but otherwise I'll be on bsky

Lovely to chat to @RussJonesWrites about Bucket List at book club tonight 💙 (and excited to hear there might be more!). The JAS Club will be taking a little break now until work dies down a bit & I’ll provide a further update after my week in the winter sun in February! 😎
Just a reminder that it’s book club on Monday & I’m hoping @RussJonesWrites will be joining us to discuss Bucket List. 7pm via Zoom - more details about The JAS Club here: https://t.co/VgH3XmSKCY

Who should replace Gregg ("it's middleaged middleclass white women's fault") Wallace as the "everyman" Masterchef judge? They could have a different guest judge per season! I'd like: - Limmy - Karen Gillen - James Acaster - Karl Pilkinton - Josie Long #greggwallace

Really pleased to have "Bucket List" as part of @thereadingpara's book club in December. It's also partly set at xmas, and the main character is a yulephile, so it's the ideal read for that time of year. Published by @PolygonBooks, link: https://t.co/MQRcmoZKmK

Two lonely strangers. One chance encounter. Six winning numbers. Dot is a lonely pensioner. Max is a young offender. But a chance meeting in their local park changes everything for this unlikely duo....

9 days left in #Japan (Nara, Osaka, Kanazawa, Tokyo). We've eaten loads of different foods, and have a few left on our list (see pic). What would be on your "must eat" list before flying home? *See my posts is you want to know what we've already eaten
