The @corastillwrites pitch email blew me away, the manuscript floored me & this chapbook will have you looking at statues and bodies and the world in a whole new way. It's fun, funny, and thought-provoking. MOSTLY SOLDIERS is a work of art, for all.

Back to work after a long weekend in East Wittering with the fam. Not the most glamorous holiday, but it was a good time.

Just overheard a toddler with the thickest Bristol accent talking about mermaids and sea monsters and she sounded like a tiny pirate! 🏴☠️

A Pride month post that was supposed to be thoughtful and literary but ended up being about 'Our Flag Means Death'. 👇

Today's Sea Shanty Sunday is 'The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald' by Gordon Lightfoot. More of a lake ballad than a sea shanty, but it works.

One thing that's particularly striking on re-reading these books is how much darkness POB smuggles in amongst all the wit and warmth.

My latest weird sensory thing is that I can't stand having fingernails longer than about 1mm. It's like I can feel them growing. 😖

Bestie: "Zendaya's good-looking but I don't really think of her as sexy. Probably 'cause she's not that sexy in her movies."
OK, tell me you've never seen Challengers without saying you've never seen Challengers.

It's royalties time! 🥳 This book has been out for almost five years now, so I'm honoured that people are still buying and (hopefully) reading it.

Ep 232 out today: The pieces fall into place for the invasion of Mauritius - how will that all play out? Plus resolution for Stephen, a boiled baby for Tom Pullings, grief and anger for McAdam, un-earned glory for Adm Bertie, and delightful news from home for Jack Aubrey.
