More wanderings around Hay-on-Wye led to more bookshops 😁 Some go for a random display, whilst others make their shelves a work of art. This stack of yellow Gollancz sci-fi classics is sure to appeal to @philspeculates.bsky.social amongst others!

I'm spending this week in Hay-on-Wye in Wales, also known as the town of books due to the number of bookshops found here. Could get used to this 😁

New Spotlight Indie Audiobook Review
The Way of Renegades by Steve D Wall. Narrated by Steven Pacey
"The Way of Renegades is a distinctive calling card by an author with so much talent."

New Spotlight Indie Audiobook Review The Way of Renegades by Steve D Wall. Narrated by Steven Pacey "The Way of Renegades is a distinctive calling card by an author with so much talent."

My first review for @spotlightindie.bsky.social this year is The Way of Renegades by Steve D Wall. I waited far too long to read this flintlock fantasy. With its beautifully realised fantasy world and brilliant characters this is a terrific debut!

After repeatedly hashing up every single step on the Mailerlite onboarding process, my daughter came to the rescue. Apparently what I was doing wrong was not following the simple step by step guide and doing things in a completely random order, then yelling when it didn't work 🤷‍♂️
