Thanks, John! My forthcoming novel, FANGS NOT INCLUDED, is my take on WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS, but with vampires from Hindu and Buddhist folklore (and a couple of original ones). I think it's funny! Hopefully you will, too. www.harpercollins.com/products/fan...

I know all these scam emails coming to authors are irritating, at best, but it's refreshing to open my spam and see one simply saying "I've decided to gift €1,500,000 to you"! Reminds me of the good old days. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

context. sentiment. inferences. People seriously cannot do these things anymore. That’s why they angrily demand you spell out every joke, every reference, super duper promise you mean something only this one prescribed way. They cannot do it for themselves or tolerate the any ambiguity.

This post is unavailable.

Is there anything more satisfying than going from wondering for weeks if you're all out of writing juice to having the plot finally falling into place in the space of ten minutes? #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #AmWriting

I'm hardly the first to say it, but it's unbelievably disgusting (and dangerous) that when someone falsely copyright claims a YouTube video, the creator has to provide their full name and address in the dispute, which YT says 'may be shared'.

Being attacked in the other place over this, but maybe you don’t get to meet trans people because of who you are and what you’ve said. And I do. And I get to look into their beautiful eyes and say, yes, you deserve the world. I’ll keep saying it until the hatefuelled dinosaurs have moved on.

Had a TERF troll come to my event at Edinburgh today, who wanted to defend the “lovely Jo Rowling” during my q&a. Reader, my reply was impassioned. I didn’t insult her or call her a name; but I robustly and heatedly defended the lives of young trans people against very unlovely billionaires.

It's astonishing to me that after all these years YouTube still allows scammers to steal creators' money by fraudulently copyright claiming music they have literally nothing to do with. And who can the creators appeal to? Why, the scammers, of course. How is that platform not dead yet?

I'm trying to write to the Oblivion (film not game) soundtrack. That's always a mistake, because I start gushing (to myself, in my head, like I don't already know) about how amazing the cinematography, soundtrack, and set/prop/costume design are for that film. And I forget to write. #AmWriting
