Though there were a couple of new @KateBushMusic books published last year, I cannot find any from this year.
With plenty of scope to explore, are authors waiting for a new album, or perhaps waiting for that unique idea?
I discuss my theories:

Kate Bush in the garden of East Wickham Farm discussing vegetarianism with Delia Smith @DeliaOnline - Summer 1979.
The segment was made for Delia's popular TV series, Delia Smith's Cookery Course, which aired on BBC2 on 29 Feb 1980.
The beautiful Vale of the White Horse, Dragon Hill & Uffington Castle, Oxfordshire, England.
Location for the filming of the Kate Bush 'Cloudbusting' music video, 1985.
Kate Bush 'Babooshka' - June 1980
Directed by Keef Macmillan.
I don't know where this video was shot; I suspect it was filmed, like some of her others, at either Blanford W10 or Ewart studios. If anyone knows for sure, please let me know.
Kate Bush 'Egypt'
Taken from the BBC Birmingham TV special 'Kate', which aired on BBC2 on 28 December 1979.
The programme was directed by Roy Norton and filmed at BBC Pebble Mill Studios in Edgbaston, Birmingham.
Sadly, the famous studio complex was demolished in 2005.
Another “biopic” that ends way too soon…
Kate Bush - Under Review (2006) is an unofficial documentary that explores her career through archive footage, performances, music videos and commentary. It covers everything from The Kick Inside to Hounds of Love, ending before the 2000s
Can't let you know
What's been happening
There's a ghost in our home,
Just watching you without me
I'm not here
You don't hear me
But I'm not here
~ Kate Bush - Watching You Without Me

Watkins Books (London) is a historic bookshop with a connection to mysticism & WW II
According the book Under The Ivy (2010) in 1976 Kate Bush used to escape after her afternoon dance lessons to that bookshop, there she found "A Book of Dreams" the book that inspired Cloudbusting
In a recent episode of Superfans! with Amy Lamé, I was brightened to hear the extent of @KateBushMusic's fandom.
Hearing young fans discuss how TikTok has given them a platform to express their love for Kate Bush.
Older and younger fans united:

While I was briefly back in the US, I was disheartened by how many would say "oh is that still going on?" when referring to the war in Ukraine.
It was incredibly frustrating for me especially as an active duty medic in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. At that point its just willful ignorance. Everyone has a cellphone, laptop, tablet, etc. Information is literally at your finger tips. But instead of informing oneself properly, the choice seems to be watching AI slop, mainstream media, and other short attention span apps.
The was is not over, it has not slowed down, we are still working and fighting for freedom in Ukraine, the frontline is still 1000 km long, civilians are still being killed by r*ssia every day. We can only go so far to inform you. The rest is up to you. Up to date sources, @KyivIndependent@KyivPost@saintjavelin@U24_gov_ua
Stay informed and inform others.
Go into the garden
Go under the ivy
Go under the leaves with me
Go right to the rose
Go right to the white rose
I'll be waiting for you
It wouldn't take me long
To tell you how to find it
~ Kate Bush - Under The Ivy
