Haven’t been active on this account because a lot has changed in my life. I have admittedly fallen out of love with the world of literature and writing, and have often felt like I have been trying to keep my head above water with it all. Taking time out to reflect and realign.

*instantly buys every single one of these books*

Please stop putting “aspiring writer” in your bio, friends. You don’t have to be published to call yourself a writer. If you have a dozen unused needlessly expensive notebooks and a desire to purchase more, you’re a writer.

Eeeek have been waiting for this, sounds like it’s gonna be a good one!

To celebrate the publication of Chain of Gold by @cassieclare in paperback, we are running a competition to win a copy of the book and a bundle of The Last Hours goodies, including a bookmark, cortana pin and character cards. RT & follow us to enter. T&Cs apply. @WalkerBooksYA

all I want in life is a little library in my home and a Victorian typewriter

@tayloreleven I need the results by a specific date & because it’s a bank holiday there’s barely any private testing centres open :((

having to pay £300 for a private covid test because it’s bank holiday feels like a war crime

@kirstycapes Omg this is fantastic! 🥳

Franz kafka ruined waking up as a giant bug. now if you wake up as a bug it's automatically "kafkaesque"

@Max_Hallam Yes! If I remember rightly those two authors were in the same module reading list like two years ago (Meatspace and Trumpet?)

@StephanieAsals I'd never have touched Nikesh Shukla or Jackie Kay without uni, but I'm so glad I did

I wish there was some kind of set up with the unis that provided English grads with current module reading lists

Crazy seeing my lecturer of four years @BernardineEvari on one of my favourite programmes, Portrait Artist of the Year. So inspiring!

@KalynnBayron wowie, amazing achievement 🥳

Surge is an incredible collection and a very well deserved win for Jay Bernard
