I love sci-fi and fantasy and anything that spans the genres. I adore Terry Pratchett and his writing, especially the Discworld. I would love to impress a dragon on Pern. I also enjoy crime stuff.

Tattooed_Mummy finished reading Silenced Girls by Roger Stelljes
Not bad. Fairly standard crime story but was well written, had a few twists and turns.

The anarchist bookfair is kicking off next week! 🏴 And while Firestorm isn't a primary venue this year, we are hosting a welcome table and the first session with local author Blu Buchanan!
Blu, who recently co-edited "Be Gay, Do Crime," an anthology from PM Press, will provide a short talk about the history of radical queer resistance and what it means for us in this particular historical moment. The presentation will be followed by a discussion of the communities boldly rising to challenge capitalism, white supremacy, and authoritarianism. This opening session will be followed by the bookfair's opening night potluck, so bring a dish if you're able (vegan and gluten-free preferred).
More information about our event with Blu and copies of the book can be found at https://firestorm.coop/events/3436-be-gay-do-crime-book-launch.html. Can't make the session in person? We'll be streaming it live on our YouTube channel (no …

Tattooed_Mummy quoted Spare by Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex
I suspected he was referring to my recent loss of virginity, Inglorious episode, with an older woman. She liked horses, quite a lot and treated me not unlike a young stallion. Quick ride, after which she'd smacked my rump and sent re off to graze. Among the many things about it that were wrong It happened in a grassy field behind a busy pub.
— Spare by Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex (Page 70)
I have nothing to say except has he read too much Jilly Cooper

@rochelimit@tilde.zone interesting because Harry claims authorship in the book. It's so badly written i would never confess if I were the author! Wild horses couldn't drag the confession from me

Tattooed_Mummy quoted Spare by Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex
Mummy's former butler had penned a tell-all which actually told nothing. It was merely one man's self-justifying, self-centring verison of events.
Pot calling kettle... come in please 🤣
