Really enjoyed this - for those (like me) who were bereft when we left Ruth behind there’s a new gang to fall in love with. I can’t wait to revisit Ali and Dina and Bud and John in the next in the series 🥰 And I loved the combination of time travel and crime - added loads of intrigue and twists 🤓

The whole blurb thing is interesting. As an author I was so delighted when people I admired read my book and said lovely things about it, and I love shouting about other people’s books. However, as a reader an author blurb has never propelled me to buy a book 🤷🏻‍♀️

Working in on line edits for Martin and Stern three now (which I HATE) and Odie has refused to trade jobs - you’d think one day of me napping while he edits would be okay but NO 🤷🏻‍♀️

Always in awe of the people who save up their Waterstones points and go on an epic book shopping spree at the end of the year/on their birthday but I will always be a person who redeems them at the earliest possible moment 😂

Anna Britton @brittonbookgeek.bsky.social · 24/01/2025

One edit done, onto the next 🤓 This was a quick structural edit and next up is a close line by line, which I HATE but it does make the writing sharper so has to be done 🫠

Over Christmas I took my emails off my phone and since then I haven’t put them back on and I’m loving it - I only look at my emails now when I actually have time to and don’t compulsively check them throughout the day 🤷🏻‍♀️ If only I could go back in time and tell querying Anna this was the way to go 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

You know what would **really** disrupt the publishing industry? Fair contracts and decent pay for authors. No AI training without the creator’s consent. Artists and translators on the cover. No NDAs for ghostwriters.

Dad reading update: he’s now on page 155 of Shot in the Dark 🤓 It makes me feel a bit emotional when he tells me how much he’s read - he hasn’t read a book in the last 40ish years and that he would make the effort to read mine is so lovely 🧡

I don’t know if it was because I was doing lots of new things, feeling vulnerable, or because I was away from home a lot, but my PTSD flared a bit these past two weeks while I was launching Shot in the Dark 🫠 Really glad to be getting back into my usual rhythms today 🧡
