A yellow lightbulb mascot is stuck in a doorway.

Terumaru, a bright young lightbulb and the mascot of the Tokyu Denki electric company, trapped in a door yesterday:

You are doing *amazing* work!

Amazing!!

The most iconic of all Doctor Who pics: Verity Lambert, the show's first producer, uses the flamethrower of the robotic baddies, the Mechanoids, to light her cigarette.

Happy Doctor Who day! To celebrate here is the greatest of Doctor Who images: Verity Lambert using a Mechanoid as a lighter.

I need this Pope explained to me in very small words.

Thank you, Paul! That’s really lovely to hear!

Kendal Castle Ruins Last week I was on a lovely writers’ retreat in the Lake District, and found some time to take a couple of trips to investigate the beautiful surrounding area. So obviously I had to go see so…

I went to Kendal Castle ruins a week or so ago, and attempted to take pretty pictures! Thus, a post with the ones I like best: lmmyles.com/2025/11/21/k...

Ha! Very good.

Omg, so much Cushing! Bring it to me!!

Honestly, I can't be fucked transcribing all of this. I'm really, truly, very sorry.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Share a TV series you've watched beginning to end more than once.

Just don't ask me how many times I've seen Code of Honor. Please. For the love of God.

We *just* had an entirely sincere conversation about exactly this thing at the retreat last week. @lizbethmyles.bsky.social understood!!!

People: You don't really believe in fairies, do you?

Irish people: Absolutely not, but still, you wouldn't want to anger them.

Tots a Scottish thing too.

A Very Exciting Catch-Up Post I thought it’d be nice to do a quick post about what’s been going on this year. And since I have this website it seems sensible that I try to remember to update it. But, yes, 2025! A ye…

I've posted An Exciting Catch-Up Post* on my blog in an effort to justify having a website.
*excitement not guaranteed.

Impossible to pick a single one , but these two come close:

A list of reward tiers from the NAP COMIX Kickstarter DIGITAL - £7, PHYSICAL - £13, SIGNED & SKETCHED IN - £20

What's in the book? 200 pages of wonder, sleep deprivation, heartbreak, joy, surviving and thriving.

A 5-panel comic. Panel 1) The 4am feed with Henry can feel very lonely. Panel 2) I try to think of others that are also awake at that time like...nocturnal animals? Panel 3) Students studying for a test? Panel 4) And of course, people doing the same thing as me. Panel 5) When I think about them, I feel much less alone.

A 2-panel comic. Panel 1) Caption: A few months ago. Henry is stroking Rachael's face. Rachael: Aaaaa Rob, he's stroking my face! Rob: (off-screen) Aw! Panel 2) Caption: Now. Henry is pulling Rachael's face in very uncomfortable-looking ways. Rachael looks non-plussed.

The NAP COMIX Kickstarter closes TOMORROW so if you've been thinking about pre-ordering my new book please do it soon!

It includes the 1st year's worth of comics from the webcomic, as well as LOADS of exclusive content.

Thank you! (& please share!)

My beautiful wee perfect biewer terrier, Hector. The most gentlest and affectionate and playful of all the dogs.

He ran around me squeaking like a guinea pig when I got home:

For over 150 years, trans people have used courts to change legal sex. While writing Before Gender, I found what may be the first case in the US: a formerly enslaved trans woman in Georgia in 1869. Her story shows that trans people found legal support long before the word transgender even existed.

seeing a lot of chat about the juggernaut that is romantasy in publishing at the moment, & given I am a fantasy author with a YA romantasy book out (plus, I just did a romantasy panel yesterday) I feel like I should have some startling insights. I'm not sure I do. But...

if you are disgusted by government proposals for refugees - please, please write to both your local MP and to public.enquiries@homeoffice.gov.uk

Fill their inbox with your shock and dismay. Be polite but be clear

If you want text then I'm happy to share what I wrote

A lovely Thoughtbubble badge and lanyard place atop a lovely notebook.

Homewards from @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social! A smashing weekend, always leaves me fizzy with creative feelings. And tired. I am very tired.

First day of @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social! I’m assisting at Paul’s table, and not getting tricked into buying an excess of beautiful arts.

A spiffy crumbly castle ruin surrounded by grass below and overcast grey sky above.

Kendal Castle, a ruin since the 16th century. Built partly to defend against the Scots. Castle never attacked. But Robert the Bruce may have done a smidge of damage to Kendal town, once or twice.

As if 12 years of @veritypodcast.bsky.social weren’t enough of me talking about Doctor Who, @paulcornell.bsky.social and I discuss the whole classic series in the latest episode of Telefantasy Time Jump! (Warning: The Monster of Peladon is mentioned positively.)

I have book news!! Where We Stand, Where We Fall is now available to preorder from Herne Books:

Less that £100 until we reach the first stretch goal! Thank you so much everyone! xxx www.kickstarter.com/projects/fli...

Bless you, thank you!

Ty, darling!!

Oh, bless you. Thank you.
