This is everything it should be - meticulously researched, deeply thought out, uncomfortably probing, scrupulously fair, AND ALSO outrageously entertaining.

This is how progressives should tell stories. An hour flew by.

I've looked at a map, wouldn't it be easier if Denmark claimed Alaska?

I mean, if it were a game of Risk...

Well played AI, which stands for Always Inaccurate by the way.
I think I need to sort out a wikipedia page, any tips?

Hi Kate, I guess Google Books and Apple. Which app are you on and I'll ask my publisher to deal with it?

Who loves audiobooks? Who loves a Christmas bargain? Who wants me dripping in their ear on crime and France?
OK, forget the last bit. But get over to Audible for some deals.

Signing books in the (wild) west end. Some people are already being Christmas obnoxious. Be nice to the people that serve you in shops, bars, restaurants etc.

Been a long day. I've done lots of writing on my five trains, then an after dinner corporate thing.
Taxi coming at 5.30am for the return.
