walking into a bookstore, asking if they have copies of your book, and then revealing yourself to sign them is the writer's version of droit d'seigneur and every time i do it i feel extremely cool. anyway @mcnallyjackson on prince st has 7 signed copies of culture warlords now!
stopped at @strandbookstore for one more #worldbookday guerilla signing (bc i never got to do a Proper Book Tour and the sun was out), 8 copies ♥️ ... droit d'signature
no one needs another personal essay on agoraphobia/panic disorder so let me just say: it sucks lugnuts and the pandini has made it immeasurably worse

watching "The Fall" to go with my general feeling of grey angst. its good
the gillian anderson/jamie dornan belfast murder show
beyond the inherent misogyny of the spectacle of the dead beautiful murdered nude woman (and throw in a seductive underage girl for good measure!) its gorgeously shot and pretty well written
