@superTV247 Yep, they're totally set up to fail. Sure, it's easy to laugh at them, but they're not video editors or singers - anyone would struggle in the time. I'd rather see someone do really well. Or both teams do so well it's hard to choose between them!

I do love Buffy, but I really like the audiobook they did and this would wipe it out of existence.
More than two decades after ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ ended its seven-season run, the beloved supernatural drama is eyeing a revival with a new chapter in the franchise. A followup series is nearing a pilot order from Hulu, with Sarah Michelle Gellar expected to star, reprising her signature role as Buffy Summers, sources said. Oscar winner Chloé Zhao, a self-professed lifelong Buffy fan, is set to direct the pilot, written by Nora and Lilla Zuckerman. All the details we know here:

That brief period of sweet relief when you're up-to-date with all your reviews for NetGalley for the month... (nb I've just signed up to StoryGraph, alongside Goodreads for now -would you recommend?)

Finished Bob and still looking for a new audiobook series. Doesn't have to be SF! Just needs a good narrator.
I usually alternate my fiction audiobooks between the Dresden series and the Bobiverse, but as there’s only 5 Bob books, I’ll run out of those soon. What else has a great narrator and decent run? Had thought Vorkosigan Saga but I already have the books. #audible #audiobooks

@Remzsx You might need your kidneys for a child one day. Every operation has risks, and I would not go through this for someone who has treated you so badly.

Really did not expect to end up in tears. (But I was a big fan of Diagnosis Murder). How lovely.

JayHenge Publishing is happy to announce the release of The Pelagic Zone: Uncharted Waters! Thank you to all the authors who wrote such excellent stories and for their patience in waiting the time it took to get this one ready!

@pecdwoodbury @ricardoautobahn Sure, they can go back and look for the classics they remember, but when I've done this my kids tend to find them a bit dated. It's just that wee bit harder to discover new good stuff - this is where we're losing readers. Many bestsellers are 'fine' but that doesn't win readers

I think I’m just going to sell any dresses I’ve got that don’t have pockets. I simply can’t live without them any more.

@LouiseMBuckley it’s very kind to suggest & then it’s up to them. I had one agent suggest I take out one viewpoint character, which would mean taking out 50% of my book. She may well have been right, but I didn’t do it as felt energy would be best put into another project. Still appreciated it!

@crit_gen Love mine. But you can’t overload them. Big things over more than one rung, put things flat on the bottom layer or it won’t dry. We use ours in combo with a dehumidifier
