I'm blaming it on the exhaustion. Although I'm very good at spotting typos when I'm prepping audiobooks. But do they pay me for my superb proofing skills? No, they do not 🤓

No worries, I was just having a cheeky moment. I'll be reading it regardless, mark my words!

You know a country by its values. By what a country values. And it turns out thatwhat a country values can change overtime. Sometimes, though, there's a sort of cognitive delay between the country you think you are in, and the country you've actually become. For example, you can keep selling yourself, to foreigners, as the country of William Shakespeare and Jane Austen, and luring busloads of tourists to Stratford-upon-Avon and Bath, and put a statue of George Orwell in front of the BBC, and imagine yourself a cultured and literate nation, which the rest of the world admires for its devotion to the written word - but if you then chronically underfund your cultural institutions, and treat your cultural workers with contempt, many people will suspect you of being full of it. And as the decades pass - and fewer and fewer Shakespeares and Austens and Orwells emerge from your little island - even more people will begin to suspect that in truth you do not value culture at all, and are in fact running a giant heritage museum in which the only cultural workers you respect are the dead ones.

I had similar advice from Tom Disch in the early 1970s, about writing into a niche, changed my life & seems broadly applicable
