Currently reading "Careless People" and as Sarah Wynn-williams isn't allowed to talk about it I will. Shows Facebook is even more chaotic and unprincipled (well wrong principled) than you thought you knew.

This is my childhood library and now the one I take my kids too. It's just had a refurb so pop along and say hi to them.

Jumping into the #doctorwho discourse so this guy for the new Doctor. The clubhouse is the TARDIS (bigger on inside than outside), rotating group of companions (these aren't the first squirrels) and impossible to accurately age him.

Proud to be the story of the day on @paragraphplanet.bsky.social today. Thanks to @failingwriters.bsky.social for leading me to Paragraph Planet. Go on everyone. It's 75 words. Give it a shot.

Text box containing the following 75 word story. " Walled Off. She left me, as I’d known she would. Her parting words had been “You have to start letting people in”. Easy for her to say with her charmed life. She’d have built a carapace over her heart if she’d been hurt by everyone she’d ever known. Family. So Called friends. Careless lovers. Random Passersby. But mine wasn’t thick enough, her words still stung. So I bought bricks and mortar and started to build."

Reading "Raising Hare" by Chloe Dalton. Not my usual genre but it's pastoral and soothing so far
