6 days to go ... If you are in the Leicester area on 22nd March, it would be lovely to see you at States of Independence, our free book festival for Indie publishers and authors. Working with our industry-partner @DahliaBooks @farhanashaikh, we've put together a day of treats.

Huge thanks to everyone who made States of Indie such a joyous day: @farhanashaikh, indie publishers & authors, DMU student volunteers, presenters, Security, Estates, cafe workers ... Here's Carol Leeming, who hosted a brilliant "in conversation" with our keynote Anthony Joseph.

It's nearly time to launch these beauties into the world and celebrate the class of 2025. In the Middle features new writing from the Midlands by writers of colour. Thanks #ACESupported for making the #MiddleWayMentoring project possible!

@desperatereader @TimClarePoet @dmuleicester @DMUwriters Gosh, I’m really surprised to see this Hayley. I saw lots of posts on both Twitter and FB and there were posters on campus, but I’ll pass your comments on to the organisers as it’s important they know this . It’s an annual event held in Clephan and is fantastic.

My unpopular opinion about book festivals, based on 20-odd years of attendance, is that the most prominent are mostly an affirmation of the status quo - a chance for middle-class people to get subsidised access to authors who already have big platforms on TV & radio.
