Great article on the shitshow that is the Salt Path - so many of us writers rip our hearts out in the name of good 'honest' memoir writing, the kind of writing that is written with authentic voice at its roots, don't see near the success of this book Why? Because our stories are about real, truthful #workingclass lives, they are about the lived experience of socioeconomic hardship, the lasting longevity of poverty, prejudice and unfairness at every level and at every stage of our writing careers Great to see that my @CommonGroundLit prize gets a mention too, now more than ever we need to raise our voices, here on common ground x theguardian.com/books/2025/aug…

I’m pleased to announce that St Andrews have fiiinnnallly made me a Professor. 23 years at St As. 30 yrs teaching UGs. 4 books & over 40 academic articles 100k+ words of journalism, radio etc It’s a relief. But it takes *too long*, esp for women. Let’s change that together.

Hello. I'm one of three Ayrshire lads cycling 250 miles from Irvine to Inverness to raise money for @N_T_S. We want to help efforts to replant Glen Rosa on Arran after the devastating wildfires in April. Any help (or RTs) appreciated! ❤️ justgiving.com/page/rideforgl…

@Jwknock @roddy_murray I thought it was a dipper! We had them in our local river (in Ayrshire). I could happily watch them for ages. As usual this is me wondering if Roddy is spinning a yarn.
