  1. It turns out bookshops are happy to have you pop in and sign books! So I got a train to Wynyard Station and began to walk to Newtown, popping into bookshops en route.

    First it was Dymocks Sydney - Dymocks was one of my favourite bookstores back when I was a kid.

    Second Kinokuniya - where I used to spend a silly amount of my earnings back when I was working in the Sydney CBD.

  2. CW: Jules and Rory's troubled friendship turns a corner... maybe (excerpt and link to latest chapter of Those Who Create and Destroy; character portrait with eye contact)

    Jules looked up, looked straight at Rory, his black eyes almost pleading. “I don’t want to have to watch you to go down this fucked-up road, period. Do you fucking understand?”

    Rory held his breath.

    “And it’s not because I’m ‘such a good guy.’” Jules made exaggerated air quotes. “I know you think that’s all I care about, doing the ‘right thing,’ and I guess that ought to be a fucking compliment, but it just makes me feel like you think I don’t have my own stupid feelings like a normal stupid human being. I want to protect you because I fucking want to. I know I said that one time I’d never ask you for anything again, but I guess that was a lie, ’cause I asked you to help me with Max, and now I’m asking for this. And I think I’m entitled to it. ’Cause God knows, Rory Navarrete, you will never stop owing me. And if that’s not a good enough reason for you, then I guess you’re right—you’re not the person I thought you were.”

    Rory was silent a moment, letting this soak in. “You really don’t think I’m a lost cause, huh?”

    Jules’s only answer was a shrug.

    “Just so you know,” said Rory, after a long pause, “this is a pretty weird not-friends thing we have going on here.”

    Jules side-eyed him. “Human relationships aren’t always easy to define.”
