This is a photo of Madeleine Ryan taken during our interview in the Leaf.
Madeleine Ryan has just written a cracker of a novel. It was brilliant to have a chat with Madeleine last week and pick her brain about how she came to write it and all the other reading / writing topics of course. Enjoy! youtu.be/Uh1XxRnIfk8 @scribepub.bsky.social

In 2014, at todayβs prices, the equivalent of $53,000,000,000 of Bitcoin (600,000) vanished from a bitcoin exchange in TokyoβMt.Gox.
It was at the time the largest heist of cryptocurrency in history.
And for me, it was the start of a story that I would follow for almost a decade
