- This sought after book is currently Publisher Out of Stock (POS) in the UK, but the skanks at Amazon are still pretending they've stock of it, hoping to trick people into paying for a book they have ZERO prospect of getting. Little wonder Bezos can afford a $500m yacht and a rumoured $600m wedding🙄

- Reposted by Belfast BooksMaking a starter pack for authors who do school visits, so schools can easily find us. This starts off one for primary schools go.bsky.app/5u2ArqX but I'll also do one for secondary. Let me know if you do school visits and you want to go on the list - and whether you do primary or secondary. Thanks.at://did:plc:gzfo3nt6vv6ktzwcvev2ewcv/app.bsky.graph.starterpack/3lb7zb4b5ow2a

- Anyone got a starter pack of working class people working within the UK publishing industry? I mean genuinely working class, not middle class pretending to be working class.

- I notice what this article doesn't tell you is Barnes & Noble are now owned by Elliott Investment Management, the New York hedge fund, just like their mini me Waterstones in the UK. Elliott's shareholders come first, not readers, authors or publishers.

- Good morning to everyone apart from Amazon, hedge fund owned bookshops, whoever sets business rates, supermarkets that sell books, chain store 'exclusive' books, 'celebrity' book clubs, influencers and 'listicle' culture. #shopindie
