I'm experimenting trying to make a flyer for my new book:

For anyone who enjoyed β€˜A Proper Family Christmas’ I’m delighted to say that you can now read β€˜A Real Family Easter’: amzn.eu/d/1YC72gy. It’s similarly set in a beautiful house in the Cotswolds, with two central female characters, and one determined little boy.

Certainly will, and likewise if you're ever near Stroud.

You'd do well. I gather they're very sought after now.

Morning, Liz. We had a workshop session on Bluesky at the Gloucestershire Society of Authors meeting yesterday and I'm trying to get back into it.

Maybe I chose the wrong time to go back on the 5-2 diet.

Wordle in two! A very lucky first line.

Strangely enough I got it in 3 today too, but don't know how to share it on Bluesky.

I did wonder who Nouse was.

Just made myself a big bowl of porridge on a cold day and tucked in. ... What?? It was literally a mouthful of sawdust. Checked the packet of oats and found it said 'with added bran.' I never waste food that isn't actually off, but think I'll have to make an exception and buy a new one.

Wordle in 3. I'm so clever!

Good lord! Yes, okay up here. Only the passionflower arch blown down, but it hasn't uprooted.

Gosh, did he add milk?

Sounds very like our squirrels but they seem to have gone elsewhere for the winter so I'm afraid you may be right. Those sonic rat scarers seem to do the job.

I'm afraid we blocked ours off as soon as any danger of building inspectors had gone. It's not as if there's no air flow in our kitchen.

Yes it's safe in the computer. I've no excuse not to start.

I'm procrastinating. Christmas card drawn and now I have to take the plunge and try putting some colour on it. But suppose I do it wrong?

I wish they had ordinary people on. It would be such fun to do.

Cheryl is being surprisingly good.

If you haven't read my 'A Proper Family Christmas', you might like to give it a try. Described by @kfforde.bsky.social as "Wickedly funny, this Christmas house party is both a delight and a horrible warning," it's published by Headline Accent and available in paperback or on kindle.

I promise not to be relentless. Between ourselves (no one reads this, do they?), I went off Twitter even before X because it seemed to be nothing but book promotions.

Oh, I was going to suggest people might like to buy 'A Proper Family Christmas', as it's - Christmas. Should I not?
