Thank you so much, Jacqui - The Odd Woman and the City is one of my all-time favourite books - an honour to be in this company. ❤️
Thank you very much for the mentions!
Oh excellent find! And I too am seeing DB in January - so excited!
Are you, like me, a sucker for every stupid listicle gift guide you see? Here's my list - three sets of five things I've loved this year, and 100% guarantee that none of them are stupid.
With you Victoria! Sending love and solidarity in support of preserving the real work of the State Library of Victoria and in resistance against stupidity. 💪
This is so moving for me. Thank you. ❤️
Happy to announce ELEMENTS OF THE WRITING LIFE masterclasses 2026 are open for enrolment! How to keep writing at the centre of your life when the world is trying to tear it away. With brilliant NZ novelist/screenwriter Emily Perkins. charlottewoodwriter.thinkific.com/courses/elem...
Brian, thank you so very much. This makes me incredibly happy to know. (But I hope your difficult stretch has passed. X)
Hah thank you so much. I hope you find the book you actually wanted to read though!
Ah, you sweetpea. Thank you so much VM. X
This is the weirdest thing I have ever seen! Does anyone know how this could happen?!
Lovely way to end my year in the US - thrilled to be on this list www.nytimes.com/2025/12/02/b...
Whaaaat???! This is so bizarre! Very sorry to have snuck in under your cover @mjohnharrison.bsky.social !! and thank you @kacogen.bsky.social! I'm totally bamboozled! Will ask @mrfeditor.bsky.social if he has any idea of WTF has gone on here!

Thank you so much.
Brief re-entry to Bluesky to let you know of our self-directed online writing course, 'Elements of Fiction'. Emily Perkins & I chose 5 topics: Voice, Texture, Tension, Time, and People - most of which we think are under-explored in writing classes. Very affordable & (we modestly think) excellent!
Thank you Jack, I appreciate your response to this!
Oh, thank YOU.
you're a legend, thank you!
oh thank you so much Florence!
Excellent work - it's going to be GREAT and I will be very bummed that an hour will not be long enough.
