Oh, do romance readers read too much? Of the wrong kind of books, you say? In the wrong kind of language, you say? Are they too easy, too sexy, too fun, too silly? And we’re pretending this is not The argument that people have made against romance since (checks library) 1785?

Well, I didn't make the Not Quite Write #FleshFiction longlist, but my story did get a shout out on the podcast from @elisescott.bsky.social, which was nice. Thanks, Elise 😊

The whole episode was a great listen. I'm looking forward to hearing the ones for the individual categories.

"Holy crap, I got first place!" was my exact reaction to seeing the results for the nycmidnight #ScaryStoryChallenge. I wasn't as confident with this one and had convinced myself round 2 was where I left the competition, but looks like I'm in the finals!

Seeing as it's Valentine's day, I think it's a great excuse for a romcom movie night. (Ha! Like I need an excuse.) I'm thinking I might watch The Decoy Bride, but I'm open to suggestions if anyone has 'em πŸ˜‰

A handwritten letter to Sarah McIntyre's MP. It asks him to stand up for the UK's children's book illustrators and their copyright and is illustrated with a picture of a serious-looking mouse holding a large pencil.

An important message beautifully presented by writer/illustrator and SoA Fellow Sarah McIntyre.
