I’m listening to the audiobook of “As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales From the Making of the Princess Bride” by Cary Elwes and it is INCREDIBLE. Highly recommend reading (& in particular listening) for any fans of the movie.

It’s got a ton of fantastic behind-the-scenes stories like how Mandy Patinkin bruised a rib from laughing at Billy Crystal’s ad-libbing, & many of the actors themselves narrate their own memories - it’s fun to hear their voices.

This radio celebration, with Caitlin Moran, lots of other clever people & me, talking about the Just William books and their author, is on @BBCRadio4 on 29 Dec at 11:30 am, and streaming now. (One for Good Omens fans who want to learn Adam Young's roots.)

hi wonderful people

i know a lot of folks are detoxifying and the birdsite incentives sometimes made it seem like only posting your own stuff was wise. Maybe never boosting others over there made sense.

It's different here. Here, #PeopleAreTheAlgorithm

Which means, if you interact with me, and I look at your profile and it's full of yourself. Well...kinda speaks for itself.

Boosting others here helps re-knitting lost and creating new networks of care. Be generous and share your discoveries.
