@goodreads My love of literature is rooted in the large amount of time I spent in libraries as a child, to the point where I had read every book of interest in the Public Library & was reduced to pouncing on new acquisitions, the moment they arrived, in order to find more reading material.

Do you have an early memory of when you fell in love with reading?

Why Do Angels Take A Share Of Wine? From the Wine Facts Bibliography of my upcoming vinophile mystery, Pinot Mort. Winemakers lose 2-5% of their wine every year, known as the Angel's Share. 👼 compellingtale.com/post/why-do-an… #Books #Mystery #Wine 🍷

Why do some wines have unique minerality in their taste profiles? In Wine Facts #6 we trace minerality to the glacial deposits, limestone & rocky soils of the Similkameen Valley. From Pinot Mort, A Vinophile Mystery. wix.to/oUC0qqh #WineFacts #Terroir #WineTwitter

What is a Cuvée? From Pinot Mort, A Vinophile Mystery, wine facts bibliography. An exploration of blending — cuvée, assemblage, coupage — and why winemakers do it. Short, insightful read: wix.to/vCQfZmR #Wine #Books

From my upcoming vinophile mystery Pinot Mort: Which wines benefit most from barrel aging? Short answer: red wines like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Pinot Noir. Oak helps mellow tannins and adds depth. Read more: wix.to/rFq1QbK #Wine #Books #MysteryBooks #WineTips

@goodreads Just started a literary thriller where a chef inherits a cookbook that doesn’t just feed people—it reveals truths, erases memories, and demands a price every time. It’s called Every Dish Has a Price and I can already tell it’s going to stay with me.

@goodreads Sorcery of a Queen by Brian Naslund

It's Friday! What are you reading this weekend?

Wine Facts #2 from my upcoming novel Pinot Mort. Ever wonder what 'Brut' means? It refers to the sweetness level of a sparkling wine. Specifically in the range of 0 - 12 grams of sugar per litre. 🍾 #Wine #MysteryLovers #books #publishing

@jk_rowling @damekatydenise_ Don't worry. Infamous purveyors of online hate have little chance of being confused with Dame Katy or anyone else #SignOfTheCross

Just to clarify once and for all: I am NOT @damekatydenise_. I don't have back hair so thick it requires horse clippers. I am not now, nor have I ever been, a WPATH consultant on non-binary ungulates. I don't have to tape up my 'hanging ovaries' to fit into my pink lurex leggings. I am not in a long distance relationship with a polyamorous furry called Basil. I haven't been banned from Alton Towers because my shenis slipped out of my shorts on the Wicker Man.

Just to clarify once & for all. I am NOT @jk_rowling 🤬 My list of achievements include: 67 rodents given life saving gender reassignment surgery from the back of a Capri during lockdown. A MOBO award, A Pride of Britain award & New Faces runner up 1978. A Royal Appointment from Prince Andrew. Over 4000 chairs donated to Trans womxn living in #ChairPoverty Body double for Margot Robbie in Barbie. Wet nurse for the Princess of Wales. PR to Gregg Wallace, Pink News & Jaguar. JK Rowling’s achievements? Wrote a few books. I rest my case.
