Can't believe I've chosen such a chonky book to read in the final weeks of the year. Could this be an example of reading challenge self-sabotage?

I am adoring this book. Veritably gulping it down. Recommended by my university librarian - it's funny, wise. Humble. And not just for writers - although if you're reading this, you probably are one. So many gems to share but this wee quote will give you a feel - 'writing motivates you to look closely at life, at life as it lurches and tramps around.' You won't regret diving into this wee gem.

I adore it already. Who couldn't love a book with the line 'I am creating a social media post about a croissant that I am pretty sure will define me as a human.'

Love it already. The first story about a teacher who brings her sleeping bag to work for lunchtime snoozes reminded me of her later novel, My Year of Rest and Relaxation. I found The Weirdos story hilarious. The boyfriend of the protagonist wears concealer, has a lucky 'crystal' skull and buys a gun to shoot crows with.
