Been trying to write poetry but within a line or two I feel like words don’t make sense anymore. I don’t know how you poets do it!

I feel ugly x

Is there anywhere on this app to follow or be aware of for freelance writing opportunities? I can write about travel, Pokémon, tarot and spirituality, astrology, the paranormal, books with a focus on fiction and romance books, and pets and pop culture, but happy to take on anything!

‘We will not be moving forward with your application. Please see our job board for other positions better suited to your skills’ and the job you’ve been rejected for is the one you’ve done for ten years and you’re currently doing now. I hate job applications.

Love when you block someone online, and they go out of their way to find you and comment with their second accounts. Unhinged. Always interesting when they think you’ve blocked them because you’re the one who has done something wrong, when really you cba interacting with such weird people 😅😂

Doesn’t seem like it!

Querying a manuscript for an agent never gets any better. Rejection after rejection. Think I might give up on the agent search/murder mystery route for now!

Me realising I turn 30 in 10 days

Is this because we keep manifesting?

Fed up of nothing happening. I want things to happen!

I did think the last two seasons wobbled a little bit, but I also accepted it because every storyline resolved quite conveniently at the last minute 😂 I wanted Edie to come back tho as a ghost!

Started watching it by chance and loved it! Lynette was my least fave 😂😅

I will miss them greatly

Just a second book, not a sequel! Yet 😉

Thank you! Book 2 ramps it up lol

Other than my own, A Con Affair?

Well, For the Fans for most explicit maybe, but I also found it hella problematic and struggled to finish it. Look Up, Handsome by @jackstrangeauthor.bsky.social is also pretty horny, but in a tamer, gentler, sweeter way.

I need to read more horny books

I’ve just come to the end of watching Desperate Housewives for the first time 😭

Mhm 👀

Annoying watching TikTok at the min because it’s all full of ‘Americans are gone’…and yet we all knew they would be back, and the servers are back on so it’s all been pointless discussing it xo

Love it!!!

Our shop is small so hear everything as people browse. Touch wood I’ve not heard bad - but it’s always weird when someone’s talking about it or picking it up and reading the blurb. I remember someone once saying something completely wrong like it was fact about me and I wanted to correct them 😂

Omg 😭 PLEASE tell me he bought yours?

The weird thing about working in a bookshop as an author is when a browsing customer picks up your book and remarks on it. This time, someone picked it up and their daughter walked over and said ‘oh, that’s the Jack Strange one’ - neither of them knew I was Jack Strange, but she knew my name 😭

Thanks for reading!

Today I finished reading Look Up, Handsome by @jackstrangeauthor.bsky.social

The book helped kick off the year with some Hallmark-Christmas-romance-save-the-bookstore vibes.

Wow that means a lot!! Yay! Love that 💖

I can try!

Ahh thank you so much!!! So glad you enjoyed it

I got Look Up, Handsome by @jackstrangeauthor.bsky.social last night at the bookstore. Out sightseeing today, so I had to also get the ebook so I can keep reading it while out today (no shame in my reading game). It’s the perfect Christmas rom-com! 10/10, no notes.
