We'd be SO grateful if you could share our survey for playwrights - and help us build a full picture of what writers need to thrive. @thistimcrouch @MarkRavenhill2 @testamentonline @TheatreRoyalBTN @STWevents @suhaylae @annajefferson @ChichesterFT @BtnPeople @brightonfringe
A brilliant article by my friend and colleague @AnnieSkinner1
Deb Humphrey retweeted
Congratulations @DorothyKoomson on receiving your second honorary doctorate of letters, this one from @uniofbrighton. She’s not only a brilliant writer, she’s also Britain’s biggest-selling Black female author of adult fiction and a huge inspiration and advocate to other writers particularly for marginalised communities.

'A novel this original and adventurous is a real treat' On the blog, our booksellers share what they loved about Mongrel, Glorious Exploits and The Silence In Between, three of the exceptional novels shortlisted for the 2024 Debut Fiction Prize: exyu.short.gy/WDFPshortlist2 #WDFP
It helped me think about how I use procrastination as a block to writing. It was also a way of giving prompts for stories. Has anyone else used tarot for writing? Thanks to @CathyHayward7 & Kate Coffey 2/ #reflection #tarot #tarotforwriters #writingcommunity #creativeblocks
What an interesting evening @KemptownBkshop. Tarot and creativity for writers. I'm a bit sceptical about these things, but what I found was a useful way of reflecting on my writing blocks and inspirations as well as prompts for stories 1/

Calling memoir and personal essay readers: Do you know of a personal essay I can read online that writes from the perspective of misremembering, or where the fallibility of memory is a subject in itself? Thanks in advance. #memoir #writingcommunity

Thank you @kimmoorepoet for this delightful essay on Carol Ann Duffy & exquisite celebration of learning to love life through poetry Duffy once said: “A poem can say in so few words something so precious and startling that it almost enters us.”' poetryfoundation.org/poetrymagazine…
