When I started out with my slightly mad plan to do a US tour, I set my sights on 2-3 events. I said to myself, don't get your hopes up, just see it as a family visiting trip with a couple of book events (I am fortunate enough to have family along the East Coast -

Like many, I've been wondering whether to leave X, for various reasons -mostly that I don't have the energy for more than one platform. I've come up with the perfect solution: quiet quitting. So - I'll be here from time to time, but mostly you'll find me on Insta/threads
