Being an NFL @kansascitychiefs.bsky.social fan, as well as a mum and a university programme director, I always have a handful of kids I’m worried about. I don’t know Josh Simmons, but he’s on my list to fret over.

Book launch @Bookhaus. ‘Writing is so much more than entertainment,’ Sabrin Hasbun says.

‘Fiction stays with you,’ Sunny Singh agrees. ‘It has the power to change how you think…it’s a powerful tool of decolonisation.’

Got a thank you parcel from @lisamclark.bsky.social that MADE ME CRY. Dr Clark, encouraged to slow down with her imagery, wrote a hymn just for me and then made me a pendant from her grandparent’s fountain pen. 🥹🥹🥹

Not only is this my mid morning snack, but I arrived back at my desk precisely when my security update had finished. I am your new god. Tribute and sacrifices to the usual address. Thank you.

This am I’ve:

1) Done the classic ADHD I’ve-got-an-hour-oh-now-ten-minutes-and-I’m-not-ready,

2)Confused two students and talked to the right student about the wrong story,

3) Made a student cry by admitting the end of Third Year is brutal but they’d be okay.

Upwards.

Feeling well enough to do Admissions today. I love writing that email that says: come to an interview, we like your writing! One to Gambia, two to the US, three to the UK, one to China, one to Nigeria, one to Mexico… so dang exciting!

Just admitted another three talented writers to Bristol’s MA in Creative Writing. Would have been four, but I didn’t know Zoom is banned in Iran, so we’ll ‘meet’ that candidate next week!

This is the face you make when your PhD student passes their corrections. Congratulations, Dr Lisa Clark, who may be the very first person to get a PhD in hymn writing. 😍😇⛪️🎼

This is the face you make when your utterly brilliant but horrifically unconfident student PhD student submits their dissertation on time.
