A debut novel released around the same time mine was is long listed for the Poleri Prize. I’m so thrilled for Richard. “I’m Fine” is a great book and I hope he writes more.
I'm an emotional blur after finding out I made the longlist for the Polari prize. I'm raising a glass to myself, my editor, and all the other writers on the list.

I'm touched by the quote "honest storytelling at its finest" from @AttitudeMag I had to dig to depths that made me really uncomfortable to get this memoir finished.
‘This visceral true story was at once so moving that I wanted to put it down and process its contents, but equally so gripping that I couldn’t stop reading. A testament to the author’s inner strength, this is honest storytelling at its finest’ @AttitudeMag on I’m Fine

If you haven't read Future Fish by @conor_sneyd you absolutely should. I'm hoping there are more books coming from him. Drop him a follow to find out.

My husband just appeared and said "we have chocolate Hobnobs?" No dear reader "we" do not have chocolate Hobnobs, on account of me hiding them so I don't have to share 🤣🤣🤣
Did I do enough work to have a plate of chocolate Hobnobs? You may as well say yes, because I'm having them regardless 😁
