PROOFS ORDERED! I was going to hold off on the paperback version of Return to Neverbury until after the Kindle release, which is what I did with "Welcome to Neverbury", but a lot of people have been asking about paperbacks so I've pulled forward the plan... paperbacks incoming!

In which I finally have something happening worth emailing about

Tonight's was an ABSOLUTE BELTER. Wall to wall rock classics. I may finally have educated Two Scoops on what a good song sounds like. Grab the podcast tomorrow or catch the repeat on the weekend. Whatever you do, do not miss this episode. (It's the best one we've done since the infamous "dinosaur erotica" episode)

31 days to go. Return to Neverbury with me this Halloween for magicians, dodgy lawyers, creeping horrors, changelings, folk music purists, portals to hell, idle gods, ghosts, militant amateur cycling clubs, and a serious problem with something called “Big Chicken”.

Introducing the GenAI quick-step:

1. Create slop machine
2. Do nothing to discourage slop
3. Add your own slop into feeds (see Vibes)
4. Add in adverts (see OpenAI adding adverts and new feeds)
5. Charge a subscription to clean the feed of all the junk you created
6. Profit?

Google is 27 years old. Here's the logo from the good old days of 10 organic results. Before ads took over, before multiple algorithm updates (Penguin, Panda, Hummingbird, Mobileapocalypse, BERT, etc.), before Featured Snippets, before Gemini. Before the dark times. Before the Empire.

Google in year one... a more elegant search engine for a more civilized age.

Well... here we go again. I wrote the first "Neverbury" in a month. This one has taken two years. Life gets in the way. But, at long last, we are going back to Neverbury...

I don't always match my notepad to the political news of the day, but sometimes serendipity is on my side.

This certainly explains a lot...
