You're right - ordering books from Amazon that you can buy in bookshops is criminal! BUT please, remember, self-published authors who've countless agent/publisher rejections have no option but to use Amazon. Most bookshops won't stock us. Sales are low, but there's no other viable platform available

A joint effort by sabs from Norwich Hunt Saboteurs (NHS), South Norfolk Hunt Saboteurs (SNHS) and Norfolk/Suffolk Hunt Saboteurs (NSHS) was able to drastically limit the numbers killed in a hare shoot at Banham Zoo on 15 February.

When I self-published, I set a goal of selling 100 copies of #catcherhouse. I still have a fair way to go! If you fancy a 5* reviewed thriller, please take a look on Amazon (I know, its Amazon, but it's the only way if agents & publishers don't take a chance on you!) Thank you 🙏 #goodreads #books

I've recently discovered author #AJMcDine. I'm completely hooked on her psychological thrillers - every one I read is brilliant! Highly recommend. #books #bookrecs #thrillers #blueskybooks #goodreads

Can't wait to read 'Last House in the Row' by @lesleyparr.bsky.social It's a children's book, but all of Lesley Parr's stories are an exquisite read. Modern day classic literature that can be enjoyed by adults too! #books #Kidlit #bookrecs @barringtonstoke.bsky.social

2/2 I'd like to find a list of UK chocolate, detailing their content level of heavy metal, but I can only find lists of American chocolate. Anyone know where this info may exist?

Cat Norris @cathtigermoth.bsky.social · 28/01/2025

Just found out dark #chocolate can contain high levels of cadium and lead. The UK does control this, monitoring safe levels. BUT to be on the safe side, here are a few facts: *Chocolate from Central & South America has higher levels of lead/cadmium than West Africa & Asia. * Buy craft chocolate. 1/2

Yes, I agree it's better to support #bookshops for traditionally published books. BUT many shops can't stock my novel. Amazon is my only chance to get published without breaking the bank. Unfortunately, it's not that black or white for those who can't get traditionally published/signed by an agent.

I wrote this for HarperCollins' #BookSquad blog. I was a child who didn't read books but loved stories. We should embrace this love of stories found in TV & film that many children have, not fight against it. Then show them that books have even MORE of what they want. collins.co.uk/blogs/the-bo...

Yes, it's better to support #bookshops rather than buy from Amazon. BUT I sell my #book on Amazon because bookshops (except a few local shops) don't want self-published books. Amazon is my only chance to get published without breaking the bank. Please don't judge; it's not that black or white.

Hi Jess, thank you so much! I had this problem before. It is available in the U.S. If you just go on Amazon and type in 'Catcher House Cat Norris' it should come up. The link is just for UK readers, sorry, I didn't realise you were in the U.S. 🙂
