Hey folks. In total honesty my tour is NOT selling well. I’ve sold 30 tickets in a 400 seater in Birmingham, and not much more elsewhere. If you like musical comedy, if you like standup, then please come see my show! And spread the word! The Rachel Parris Songbook tour starts in Nov! Link in bio! 🎶

It’s Michael Hordern’s birthday. Wonderfully atmospheric version of the M R James classic with a haunting performance by Hordern: youtu.be/gtTzxP03Dfw?...

You will find this with most of @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social's writing. I am currently heavily invested in the plight of cat Roscoe in 21st Century Yokel!

Of course, they might just think 'Tom' is the guy who owned it previously so they'll put it back anyway...

In my local area there are two phone box libraries. I have decided that I shall put a copy of EWSY in each one. If I put a signed one in they might get kept; if I put in an unsigned one, it might be worth more on ebay (joke). What a dilemma! Anyway shall I order direct from you or go to Blackwells?

I don't know Tom Cox personally but I can tell you with confidence he's a good person you won't regret supporting ten years from now, unlike a popular TERF I won't bother to name. His books are magical realism done with such care and love the characters could be your neighbors.

I like Oxford a lot. Its architecture, and bookshops, and cafes, plus its all-pervading ambience of history and learning, but I think what I most like about it is its commas.

Front row tickets are not as exciting as they sound. Sports - too close, gigs - always looking up to the stage. It should be middle row central position tickets to be the most desirable

Popped into Waterstones Bridport yesterday and could only one copy of Villager (signed by the author label attched) on the shelf. Unless you're in the "By now-local author" section that looked about it. They were too busy to ask; so I left feeling quite indignant on your behalf.
