In the long run, the thing that sells books the most is word of mouth. This goes 10x for books that aren’t launched with big marketing or publicity support i.e. 95% of books. What I’m saying is, talk up the books you love, because their survival depends on it.

HOW will the police know it's our first exercise of the day? How will they know if you're going out for essentials? HOW will they know if you're seeing someone outside your household? HOW about people just follow the fucking rules rather than ask these questions.

Happy #starwars Day! May the 4th be with you 😁 #crochet #crochetstarwars #crochetstormtrooper instagram.com/p/B_whcvUAYTw/…

Is tentatively venturing back into the book world. It's been a long few weeks of (attempted) home-schooling & trying to convince my children that they are not vampires and can go out in the sun without fear of turning to dust... #lockdownlife #imissmyrealjob

Going to start playing the shot game with Dan and Grace in the morning on MFR. Every time Grace says picking up on the travel update I'm going to chug my coffee... #mfr #ilovedanandgrace #theymakemorningseasier
