Books, walking, nature

Great walk around #Silchester Roman wall and found the amphitheatre. Bleak weather but very atmospheric, best time of year to visit such places

I have no idea who Liz Williams is so this is not supposed to be a rebuttal or anything, I genuinely know nothing, but I did want to add it because I think a lot of people have seen this and it seems to lend credibility.

Facebook post from Liz Williams:

Thank you, very much, Matthew. Tanith
was my friend, as many writers in the UK
will attest, especially on the south coast. I
did know this, because she told me. We
were at a convention - IIRC Orbital 8, in
2008 - at which both Neil and Tanith were
guests. She told me that she was trying to
avoid him because he'd plagiarised a large
chunk of her work: not just a bit, but entire
paragraphs. She didn't say which book it
was from. And she had considerable
disdain for him.

Enjoying #francisbacon at the #nationalportraitgallery seeing how he was an influence on modern horror, eerie lighting and screaming popes
