This was a lot of fun. Thanks to @newwritingnorth.bsky.social, the Tyneside Cinema, an engaged audience, and the inimitable @stuartmaconie.bsky.social for a terrific event on July 15, discussing Stuart’s latest @harpercollins.bsky.social book: With A Little Help From Their Friends.

#CrossToonTraffic - a fab, student-curated mini-exhibition celebrating some of the African American musicians who appeared in Newcastle during the 1950s and 1960s is on at Newcastle City Library until April 28. Nostalgia-a-GoGo! @northumbriauni.bsky.social. @nuamstudies.bsky.social.
