Wyrdlings!
Off we go on M.C. Escher’s birthday to
“Wander around in Enigmas: Illusions, Impossibilities, Infinity”
A Möbius strip of a #WyrdWednesday topic – share your tales of things that are not what they seem, distort and disappear into nowhere!
"O that it could be proved
That some night-tripping fairy had exchanged
In cradle-clothes our children where they lay"
HenryIV Pt1 1.1 #ShakespeareSunday
And some of it will make you cry.
Some of it is beautiful...
Reading "Saltburn" by @drewgum.bsky.social today.
My 3rd book, Seven Nights at the Flamingo Hotel, came out 6 years ago, 12 years after my previous one. I’d given up on being published. Then I saw a new local publisher was setting up, Bearded Badger Books. Flamingo Hotel was finished so I thought, why not? Happy Pride 🏳️🌈.

My first book, The Lodger, came out 24 years ago. It was published by Gay Mens Press. A sampler of it was given away with Gay Times. It was a Lambda Award finalist and No. 1 on Amazon’s Gay and Lesbian chart. Happy Pride everyone!
