@samjordison.bsky.social Great shout out for After Sappho - best sentence of 2023
Had a thouroughly enjoyable hour last night listening to @shawnthebookmaniac.bsky.social on his best/worst of 2023. Shawn is a stoutly independent reader/bailer - hits the sweetspot between books I agree/disagree with him on. A regular source of reading tips for me.

Wise words - that we all need, whether we're writers or not.
My final newsletter of the year is about the R word (yes, that one!), pondering "not-acceptances" and how to deal with them, trying to find some wisdom in my recent mega-run of 59 NQAs: prattlefogandgravelrap.substack.com/p/the-r-word

Great shout out to a @galleybeggars.bsky.social author today - Paul Ewen. According to the fabulously funny Nina Stibbe, he's the funniest. A cinema-full immediately googled him. A Derby BookFest event.
