Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

And, in exciting news for me, I get to see her on Monday for a get together at her publishers. :-)

She'll be talking about her new book and I will be attempting not to be all gushy and stupid.

I might take along a photo of Hobbes and see if she can see the resemblance.

Have they ever been seen together in the same room?
I'd wager not.
