We now have a Labour majority on Milton Keynes council for the first time this century.

There are more concrete cows in Milton Keynes than Conservative councilors.

A question: when people say “they’re all the same” about politicians are they really saying “I haven’t had any motivation to find out the differences”?

Tracy Buchanan Author’s TRAIL OF DESTRUCTION is $2.49 for the whole of May! 🇺🇸

In this chilling tale, a spark of malice ignites into an inferno of violence. Can one woman uncover the truth before it all goes up in flames?

OMG, Wes Streeting MP’s bombastic side-eye is hilarious!

(What’s not so hilarious is what he’s reacting to: a Government minister’s inability to distinguish between Rwanda and Congo. 😫)

Just saw this on the John Lewis & Partners website. It’s worth more than my bloody car!! (And yet I almost want to sell my car to try this out)

I recently started a part-time role looking after internal comms at the amazing Relate counselling. I write about the challenging transition from ‘full-time author’ to ‘part-time author’ in this article.

(Spoiler alert: it all worked out great!)

I've grown to really like Jason Kelce in recent months, he's such a character, but what's on about? Granted, Rees-Zammit is a well-brought up Vale of Glamorgan boy, but I'm not sure the Welsh are considered posh 😄

What’s Khloe Kardashian trying to say with this post? Whatever it is, it feels wrong. And honestly, I’m no Kardashian hater, but as a mother to a daughter & someone who’s own body image obsessions took over a bit too much as a teen, I’m just done with posts like this from them.

I think it’s wrong when publishers expect established authors to pitch an entire MS before considering them for a book deal. It’s not financially safe, plus it shows a lack of respect for the expertise of published authors.

Do you agree?

LOVE the sound of this! Happy publication day, Cally!

Happy publication day to a great author advisor and writer!
