UK adults owe so much to the TV they watched as children. Why aren't they making sure their own children get the same chance?

“In the Gaza Strip, at least 4,000 babies are estimated to have been cut off from lifesaving newborn care in the past year because of sustained attacks on the hospitals earnestly trying to keep them alive" unicef.org/press-releases…

Magnificent

@culturaltutor And a very obvious, but much loved; The Magpie - Monet

@culturaltutor A stunning collection, the Shishkin is incredible. A couple of others… AKSELI GALLEN-KALLELA | Lake Ruovesi in Winter

The most beautiful paintings of Winter: 1. Full Moon by Louis Douzette (1869)

@MichaelRosenYes What amazing fun writing can be. How surprising writing can be. Drawing is very similar… it takes you down roads you’ve never travelled before, drawing in new ways, trying to express new thoughts, feelings & emotions - and when on the rare occasion you get it right… amazing!

I'm in the middle of a writing adventure. I've never been here before: a kind of writing that I've never done before, never done any writing in this kind of way before, nor with this expected/hoped-for outcome. Can't say what yet. Just had to say. And it's exciting.

@PhilTite1 @HGold_author @sophyhenn Yes indeed… thank you very much Phil!

@HGold_author I guess I’m not allowed to say yours? Was Katherine Rundell’s Impossible Creatures this year? @ed_vere’s The Elephant and the Sea picture book is a gorgeous ode to the RNLI. We love @sophyhenn’s new Happy Hills graphic novel/comic book series. So full of fun and joy and crazy.

I'll always have special memories of this scene of Ed's. See why here booksforkeeps.co.uk/article/slow-d…

@Mat_at_Brookes Thank you Mat… it was a lovely conversation.

Coastal scene, with elephant.

I’m biased because Chris is a friend…BUT… this book is a masterpiece! A fascinating exploration into what it is to be human, what it is to be creative, how we communicate and how we developed technologies from stone axes to AI… and beyond. Political & thought-provoking. A+⭐️

@Susannah_Lloyd it is!

@ed_vere Wonderful!

A little bit of the great Jan Pieńkowski to start your week. These pictures are from Jan’s treasure chest of an archive. He was a meticulous archiver. (I knew Jan all my life and am now one of his literary executors). There’s so much wonderful work in here to discover🧵

@mrjamesmayhew My pleasure, James. He really was.
