@NextEditionIsla My laptop did a restart this morning… literally 50 tabs GONE!

My current reality!

I keep thinking how 3 little girls were killed & more were hurt & traumatised, & instead of talking about their precious lives, we are being forced to focus on violent entitled white men burning cars & towns, who don’t give a shit about women’s & girls’ safety.

@WigtownBookFest Gorgeous programme cover - bravo Krista! Looking forward to seeing what’s in store. Well done team, @WigtownBookFest.

📣 Full programme release on 6 August, with early access for members of our Friends scheme from today. #Wigtown

@amberivatt @thebookseller @Francesca_PR Congratulations!!

So amazed and delighted to be amongst this sparkling constellation of stars and in @thebookseller class of 2024 ✨ Huge thank you to @Francesca_PR for encouraging me to go for this and supporting my app! So lovely to meet & see so many of you last night and celebrate together 🥂

The Libraries for Primaries campaign has recorded its 1,000th opening, with organisers targeting 2028 to reach the remaining 1,900 primary schools in Britain that have no library or dedicated reading space 👇 #Echobox=1718619012" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">thebookseller.com/spotlight/nati…

📢 BIG PROJECT CLAXON! 📢 VF is looking for a big space for the whole of Aug and into Sep 2025 in Edinburgh - as central as possible. A warehouse space would be perfect: 19m x 14m, and a height clearance of 5m. Anyone got one of those lying around? 📨laura@visiblefictions.co.uk

@HeatherParryUK @WigtownBookFest So good to see you albeit briefly!

I only took one photo at @WigtownBookFest and it was this one, which screams 'goth at the living room cocktail party', and is therefore fully indicative of my weekend. I had a blast.

@Louiestowell @WigtownBookFest Thank you so much for joining us!

@randallwrites Hahahaha. I woke up with the same panic!

Ha ha ha ha. It's NOT Thursday. It's only Wednesday. TWO days from Festival.
