2025 was an art year I am proud of. Strong new work, group shows across the country, and a few pieces sold. As an activist artist, it's quite a time to be alive.
Maybe next year, I can get back to spending more time with happier issues like the climate crisis. 🤞

Spent 2 weeks struggling to get through 130 pages of a book. Wasn't speaking to me but I still felt like I had to trudge through. Moved on to another book. Read 130 pages in 12 hours. Feeling better about myself.

If you like an author's work, the best thing you can do is buy it. The second best thing you can do is ask your local library to buy it. Or, do both!
A reminder that the median book deal for a debut author in the UK is £7000, paid over 12-18 months. (from 2022 Society of Authors report). Some of your favourite writers are struggling. societyofauthors.org/2022/12/06/a....
