Once, an old bear found a girl weeping in a churchyard, close to his cottage. He took her home & tucked her up, & fed her cloudberries & plain cake & let her sleep for days & days under cold linen sheets & feather eiderdowns, & he didn't speak, not one word, unless she wanted to.

It’s a beautiful, crisp day so maybe I’ll stay inside and draw the curtains and binge-watch The Fall of the House of Usher 😂

So sad not to make this - it looks brilliant. A few tickets left!
Tonight, for one night only, we will be presenting 13 phenomenal short pieces at Burnt At The Stake @the_globe and the weather cannot be more fitting for the magical conjuring of fury and truth telling. Still a few tickets left. Come join us!

I’d love to use this new space to talk a bit more about reading outside of work, largely in the hope you will all share your recommendations. Right now I’m in the middle of ‘Chain Gang All Stars’ by Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah.

Anyway, be my digital book club please!
