Let’s take our flag back from Reform. It’s everyone’s, not just the property of the right. It should mean unity, not horrible division. Come on book people! Let’s see your book flags 😎

Wolf-whistled today for the first time ever. I’m worried it was ironic, but even so: thank you Man On The Street Literally Half My Age. You gave me a good giggle on my way home from the gym!

Made the massive error of reading some reviews of my book on Goodreads. Conclusion: it is NOT FOR WRITERS. Stay away. We aren’t strong enough. It’s the Hunger Games in there. If you need me, I’m dead behind a hedge.

Today years old when I realised that Emperor Hadrian also thought crocodiles were super cool. Has his own life size statue of one at his villa! The man was clearly a good person.

Heard within an hour of coming home: 1) what do you MEAN, I didn’t tell you he has cancer? Don’t be stupid. He’s ninety, he’s riddled with cancer. 2) there’s a sausage on the floor!

A friend just messaged me to say he couldn’t have a call on Saturday because he had to go to a craft fair and then a sex party, and now I’m worried I haven’t been doing my life right…

I give custom endpapers to books that I particularly adore. Suffice to say that The Hymn To Dionysus by @natashapulley.bsky.social is more than deserving.

A hardback edition of The Hymn to Dionysus by Natasha Pulley. The photo shows the cover (a greek mountain city design in black, blue, and gold) and a hint of the endpapers within. The endpapers have a dark blue background and a pattern of swirling golden leaves and flowers

A clearer view of the endpapers, showing the full design.

A view of inside the book, showing a section of pages partially lifted to reveal the endpaper beneath

Another angle of the hardback book with the cover slightly lifted to show the endpapers

See, I grew my hair long and dyed it blonde and started wearing eyeliner to disguise myself as a human, but as you can see here, I am actually a Dorkosaurus Rex who learns ancient languages for fun. Raaar *stomps roaring through New York*

Online US events! They are at strange times because I’m in the UK, and I need to be AWAKE to talk to Maya and Barbara because they are both much smarter than me…

Just had a lovely conversation with my German publisher about how to translate “knight” for The Hymn to Dionysus and we fell down a joyful rabbit hole of Greek and The Iliad and languages and anyway, I’ll be wearing my Happy Dork Bunny ears for at least the rest of the week.

Today my friend told me that the theme song of Babe (the sheep pig, remember?) which I have been singing my entire life, is actually an organ composition by the very famous Saint Saens. So there. I got my music education from a talking pig.

Dionysus has his own trailer and Emma composed the music, which is my favourite part…!

If you need some end of year positivity with your historical writing, get yourself an early xmas present of one the last spaces on the Arvon course I'm running with @natashapulley.bsky.social in Devon next week. @catrionaward.bsky.social is our icing on the xmas cake. www.arvon.org/writing-cour...

Residential Writing Course: Historical Fiction | Bringing it all together | Arvon

So you have a great idea for a historical fiction novel. Perhaps you’ve been writing it for a while. You're working out how to research and you know a thing or two about the time period… but the plot ...

It’s lovely in Miami but bloody hell, I just had to pay £6.50 for a coffee. How is anyone still alive here? I’m on the edge of foraging on the seashore and I haven’t even been here for 48 hours.

Miami is SILLY. It is almost CHRISTMAS. Unacceptable.

Right! I’m off to Miami for the book fair! Prepare for soul destroying pictures of sunshine.

Woo, The Mars House has been longlisted for the inaugural Climate Fiction Prize! This is not a book I ever expected anyone to read, so I am very very happy :) Never mind that one of the other books just won…the Booker. I can still dream!

The Winter Spirits is a Blackwell’s book of the month and it is looking VERY SHINY. I’m so happy to have a story in this collection. I did not sail to a deserted island in the fog and risk being eaten by wild sheep for nought!

Natasha Pulley @natashapulley.bsky.social · 15/11/2024

So…to what extent should I not delete the sex scenes in the book I’m working on now? There are three. Is that good? Is it garbage? Consideration A: it lightens up a nuclear apocalypse book Consideration B: my grandmother can’t read now but MAKES MY MUM READ TO HER.
