Like imagine struggling to hit 10k? That’s just extra waffle I know my editor will swiftly cut out per every 7 or so chapters on a first draft 😂

Talking to my best mate about her job and the uni essays she has to read and grade is fascinating. Author must be the only profession to whom the word counts these students are complaining they’re struggling to hit sounds like cruel and tortuous shackles 😅😭

Some days all I can think about is the fact that my friend’s mum is called Merlin and her Aunt (Merlin’s sister) is called Joan OfArc (OfArc is her middle name)

Anyway, as it stands we won't ever get married because he's not on board with the fancy dress element that is a requirement for me. I will say though that I think he can be talked round. And if so I'll print this thread on the back of the invites.

lol jk, this was a catalyst for a series of weird little coincidences falling into place about a week later at just the right moments, so much so it's made Miss Cynical over here start to wonder if fate really does exist? 12yrs of intentionally single man hating over in 1 night. love of my life fr

I've been so bad at keeping up with Blue Sky. Or any socials. Or any book marketing. Or writing n general. Or just anything. Just being an adult. Just existing. Does it ever get any easier?! At newly-33 i'm starting to fear not

Come sit around the campfire as we ask @amiescool.bsky.social all the questions! What’s her writing style? What's up with the tunnels under Manchester? 👀 Is she team Edward or team Jacob? 🔎 Can she spill the secrets about book 3? 🤫 #CampYA campya.org/campfire-cha... @chickenhousebooks.bsky.social

A hot guy has just correctly used ‘laborious’ to describe something, and I’m not sure if it’s simply testament to how bad the pickings are on hinge in your 30s that this could be the hottest thing that’s happened recently? But we have to get married now. (He doesn’t know it yet.)

niche, but as a heavily tattoo'd woman and a writer, I really would love someone to commission me to write an article analysing the various reactions or comments I've received regarding them. Specifically men, and why they only ever seem to pick certain ones to point out & start a conversation on.

Kidlit colleagues, just a reminder that JK Rowling *funded* this challenge over the definition of women at the Supreme Court. Every time you choose to work with her, platform her, take a stance that aligns with her, buy her books, nominate her for more awards, she uses that and funds hate.

I grew up with only girl cousins so Jasper was a shock to the system for all of us anyway really but this kid has pulled out two of his own teeth this week that were wobbly bc he 'couldn't be bothered waiting for them to fall out of their own' boys are truly unhinged ???

someone's just tagged me in a review that was 4* and opened with saying they loved the book, but then the whole review was just a list of things they didn't like 😂😭 Is this... is this the new way to get round the 'don't tag us in bad reviews' rule 💀

upon reaching out to pass on my congratulations, I learned today that the translator for one of my foreign editions died a few weeks ago after a very short illness. She just missed publication & all the wonderful reviews I'm reading praising the writing style, which is much more on her than me. 1/

got one chapter to write that I just can't face and I don't know why. I know what needs to happen and why, and it's not even really a bad chapter - it's just subtly info giving to the reader. I don't even know why I can't face writing it. I both love and hate this job.

But 'you shouldn’t always take things Donald Trump says absolutely literally' isn't dissent is it? It's making excuses for him just like Johnson did. Spineless arselickers, all of them.

Amie Jordan @amiescool.bsky.social · 20/02/2025

to ease tensions as I was leaving my house whilst he was going mad out front I just told him it was me, since he remembers me a lot more now, so I just said I was gardening my garden and tidied up his hedge for him whilst I was at it. It backfired when he called the police on me instead 😂 7/

Amie Jordan @amiescool.bsky.social · 20/02/2025

So obviously by the 3rd morning the hedge was considerably smaller and he didn't remember his two days of hedge trimming and was CONVINCED local youths had been and tidily trimmed his hedge through the night without permission and he was raging about calling the police on these kids 6/
