Decided to make some spring rolls 🙂

They were a little late to the party but I am finally getting some late season tomatoes. I guess getting a few from each plant is better than nothing 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

On an absolute roll with the writing at the moment. Squeezing sessions in before and after shifts at the dayjob, and averaging 2-3K words a day. Haven’t had such a good flow for some years 🥳✍️📕

Apparently the current season of Drag Race UK is going to be the last with the BBC because they have dropped it… and to be honest, I think this could be a good thing if WOW Presents chose to continue.

Why is it that whenever the meteorologists predict a heatwave it comes without fail but when it’s a good ol’ storm they see on the horizon it never actually fucking happens.

Today marks a year since I picked up the keys for this place. This was a big step for me because not only was I living by myself for the first time but I was also becoming a homeowner and truly settling down somewhere with the intention of living there long term.

Imagine trying to explain to future historians that we are going to drill for oil not because it will actually reduce our utility bills but as a performative gesture because people falsely believe it will.

Today, we are delighted to publish Tej Turner’s latest book Blood Ruin, the fourth book in his epic fantasy series The Avatars of Ruin, continuing the story of the previous three books in the series (Bloodsworn, Blood Legacy, and Blood War). books2read.com/BloodRuin

Cover of Tej Turner's Blood Ruin, book 4 in his Avatars of Ruin series, art by Alison Buck from an idea by Tej. In the centre is a face in shadow with shining eyes, wild hair, a red gem in its forehead, on a black background. In a circle around, animalistic and monstrous claws and tentacles woven together. Outside, panels bordered with blood red, containing an intricate celtic knot pattern in various shades of green.
