Thanks to my ace publisher @bhousepress for keeping it real in the paradise that is Jubilee Britain. This book might be for you if you're interested in what @badaude called 'the unsteady pulse of the suppurating British body politic' - and other fun stuff boilerhouse.press/product-page/t…

@LNER Many thanks for getting back to me. I see the 10.03 from KGX arr Leeds 12.16 is cancelled though, this looks ominous to me... would it have become the 12.45 Leeds-KGX train - i.e. will there be a knock-on cancellation for that service?

@LNER Hi there, how bad is it currently at Leeds, genuinely? Hard to tell from online updates whether it's worth attempting to get the 12.45 to KX that I'm booked on. Is anything at all running leeds-doncaster? Thanks

@carrie_walsh_ Ha ha, it definitely has that vibe. Things will go dark enough soon enough, since "wherever we go, there we are" (people, that is). At least it's Muskless; that's my reason for shifting that way.

Im still not vibing with blue sky. It's really nice not to have bots & brain dead tossers interacting with yr posts, but its v much the smug vibe of "yeah we moved out of London to the village of St Clodturnip - everyone bakes and there's no crime!" and I'm a big city girl so...

A few places left on this brilliant course

My @londonlitlab short story Bootcamp course is back! Postponed due to illness but now raring to go, this course is somehow both leisurely (lots of writing/breathing/thinking time) and intense (lots of feedback & food for thought). I'd love to have you🫵londonlitlab.co.uk/course/short-s…

@nhealey Well, yes... but writing proper people with proper accents is always a struggle and I want to do some learning!

@rubycowling err... aren't you a contemporary writer? from up there (tho u hide it well)?

English

Ruby Cowling's not here ⛅🌧⛈@rubycowling·31 Eki

Can you name contemporary writers who "do" Yorkshire dialect well (i.e. without sounding like the old duffer out of Wuthering Heights)? Even if it's just a hint of dialect.
