Kith of The Elf Folk and others (New collection of the work of Lord Dunsany Illustrated by me) is coming out at the end of the month. Do and book site/ media/bloggers want to talk with me about it? I...have a lot to say. #booksky

That time someone dumped a toy house on the cemetery wall and, when I crouched a bit, some ✨ Hollywood Magic ✨ occurred.

Reread The Glass Essay last night & found this bit very Prufrock; the yellow fog that rubs its back upon the window-panes…

Andy Burnham must properly fund our NHS and end NHS privatisation We spend £40 billion LESS on health per capita than comparable European countries like France and Germany After years of underfunding and privatisation, our NHS is on its knees. It's time to get serious about reinstating our NHS

The plus side of having to stay in bed and cancel long-held plans - 463 words of new poem drafted. It never fails to amaze me what lands on the page when you let it...

Love this for him...apparently he was knocked out stone cold before he was able to vent a hateful word. Lest we forget also that his grandson is CEO of Palantir

Your periodic reminder that the single greatest threat to democracy, transatlantic security/cooperation/prosperity, & European integration is neither Russia, nor China, nor any other external threat, but rather the authoritarian calls coming from inside the house.

Banned Books Week is almost over! The Trump administration had at least 596 books removed from schools serving military families. Don’t forget to get out there and read some of the books they tried to keep off the shelves. Happy Banned Books Week!

Boosting again for people getting COVID vaccines (thank you for getting vaccinated!!) because my mentions are full of people finding it helpful. There is way more detail (and citations!) in the thread both up and down but this is the key info!

The Wicker Man on BBC4 right now in HD looks so crisp. Which, coincidentally, is how Edward Woodward looks by the end of the film. #Spoilers
