Yup.

@EarlyModernDoc So pleased you like, Varsha!

I have the most fabulous company on this train journey! @will_tosh 's book is as enjoyable as everyone has been saying...

@rockerhanbag @PiersTorday Haven’t set foot in the green room since 2020!

it’s a small point but although I have been in many green rooms over the years I have never been in a green green room

Happy to announce I've founded a new prize for UK writers - the RSL Scriptorium Awards - which offers my pension-investment cottage on the Kent coast to writers for free for up to a month each. Applications open Spring 2025. A jury will choose the writers & I will have zero involvement in the selection. For more details, follow @RSLiterature, visit their website, and check out this Guardian article. Sadly, due to ongoing attacks, I have to state that this is a philanthropic gesture, I am offering the cottage for free & further supporting the prize & I am, therefore, of course, in no way earning any income from it. (I know, go figure) I have set up several literature inclusion projects over the decades (look under 'Community' on my website) & this one shares the Booker Bounty! theguardian.com/books/2024/oct…

@sacha_coward Woop! Congratulations Sacha - wonderful to know it’ll be available in the US.

So I hear there's something big happening tomorrow in America... like big and really important... but by a ridiculous (and slightly unfortunate) happenstance it's also the North American release of Queer As Folklore. So... *muted fist pump*

@SoManyBooks6 Was very sorry to miss!

No one needs to read this. Please support proper books by people who have something to say. Like this one! lnk.to/StraightActing… (Other proper books are available.)

What can I add, but to say it’s his best yet and everyone must instantly buy it.

@harry_waller_ There they are!

In which I start a casting call for the queer chorus line of history… #StraightActing lnk.to/StraightActing…
