- Will I ever be able to spell “Caribbean” correctly on the first try? No one knows…
- Getting an adhd diagnosis at 5 Going to a book launch at 6:30 The author: this one is for the adhd girlies I feel perceived
- I don’t think I’ve ever pressed the full request button faster. It’s horrifying, it’s beautiful and hey, can there ever be too many cannibal books?
- So grateful that this weekend’s editing is a revolutionary, anti-colonial, political fantasy that feeds my rage at the world
- Listen to Stew.
- Reposted by FabAbsolutely delighted to see my acid-western-queer-romance novella, FOR THE ROAD on the BSFA longlist! It's a mega year (go check it out) but would be extremely honoured if you'd consider chucking in a nomination towards some of my rawest, strangest writing: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
- Reposted by FabLook, I'm going to tell you a secret. If you buy an e-book while it's on sale, you never have to read it. If you have $2 to spare & want to help that particular author, you can just chuck the book into the oubliette of your TBR. Every sale helps. The author will never know, but you gave them a gift.
- Going to Waterstones to look at cannibal books is not something I ever expected to be part of my job
- I couldn’t be more thrilled. UTAMA, a historical fantasy about Singapore’s founding myth was one of my standout reads of 2025 and we’ve got big plans!
- I guess my sister can stay
- Six and a half years of life in the UK and this last trip to Switzerland has shown cars driving on the right now confuse me.
- Spending the weekend with friends who have forbidden me from doing anything work related. In theory, great idea but dammit I’m 30 pages from the end of a manuscript I’m obsessed with
- The delight when your author tells you they’re comping their new project to one of your favourite books of all time, unknowingly

- Writing retreats are great and all, but where are my editing retreats for agents and editors?
- No one’s expecting me to get work done while it’s snowing, right?
- Leaving my laptop and notebook in the office over nights has done wonders for my work-life balance, who’d have thought
- Reposted by FabDoing work planning for the next six months and looks like I'll have slots available for freelance work, esp around Feb-April. So if you need someone to write STUFF or do narrative /story consulting, HMU! Things I've worked on over past few years (and am not NDAd about) include!

- Reposted by FabSince everything is awful and it’s nearly Christmas, who’d like some pictures of ship’s cats? Don’t worry dog lovers, a canine thread’s coming soon! Let’s start with Tiddles, sitting in his favourite spot on the carrier HMS Victorious in 1943 (he liked playing with the bell rope) 📷 IWM A 10646 🧵1/17
