A lovely chat with @afsteadman.bsky.social about #Skandar to celebrate the paperback release of #ChaosTrials @simonschusteruk.bsky.social. Brief concern, I couldn’t find my #PhantomRider. But the stable is back together. Chat will be out on Thursday bit.ly/3WSjdqy #QuackedSpines

Allegedly it’s grim up north.
Don’t tell everyone but it’s just an ad campaign we run to keep it to ourselves.

it would be amazing to see you again sir, and hopefully we can find a hotel a bit nearer that doesn't involve you touring the whole of Teesside on the way to the venue 😁thanks @borolou.bsky.social for the heads up.

Day 20 and Richard has been booked back in the “holding books so you can see the title” 101 class. That is unless @richardosman1.bsky.social wrote “We Solve Ders”. The less said about why is decided to stand on a chair the better I suspect.

Day 12 and I think people on the shop are wishing the image rights dispute was still a thing (just wait till the 24th😂)
