Great night with @stuhennigan.bsky.social at @drakebookshop.bsky.social. Stu's one of my favourite writers and I could listen to him talk for hours. Fascinating to hear about the process behind - and hear him read from - his novel #Keshed (which I finished on Monday - brutal but brilliant!).

Stu Hennigan reading from Keshed, with Richard from Drake the Bookshop alongside him.

A copy of Keshed sits on a small, light oak table.

Know Nic for years online so what a treat to meet in person. Social media has a terrible rep but it's brought me into contact with so many ace people, no complaints from me. Cracking night, this, really engaged audience while I did my ranty swearing gobshite schtick. Top stuff.

#BookSky pals in London and environs are advised to check out the launch for the brilliant @markabowles.bsky.social new one. Dials back the frentic vituperation of his debut in favour of altogether more reflective vibes with unmistakable shades of Fernando Pessoa. Recommended 📚 luma.com/xe3uwolv

This wonderful interview with Wendy Erskine was a great way to start the day. She's such an engaging and honest writer and speaker, so immediately likeable. 'She has no side' as we used to say. Do listen: www.rte.ie/radio/radio1...

Wendy Erskine

Award-winning novelist and short-story writer Wendy Erskine hopes a tangential connection to a Croation midfielder from the 90s will be enough to give her the edge in this year's title race.

One of the good guys. Sean's a top lad and the press are brilliant, been knocking out quality stuff under the radar for the longest time. Check em out. #BookSky 📚

Massive thanks to @spburton.bsky.social for sharing these expansive thoughts after reading #Keshed. Reader recommendations/word of mouth are crucial for writers like me and it's appreciated every time ✊🙏

In Ancient times an eclipse was an ill omen. I suggest we sacrifice the mega wealthy to appease the Sun God. Or just cause the greedy cunts deserve it, either one works.

There have never been so many security hoops to jump through to conduct even the most innocuous of mundane tasks yet I have never in my life felt less protected from scammers? We cannot return to an analog existence soon enough.

Heartbreaking stuff in his previous project on homelessness in the UK. I spoke at the opening of the touring exhibition a couple of years ago, and i've arranged for it to come to Leeds through work next year. No amount of political whitewash can cover these. marcdavenant.com/exhibitions/...

I said to mine once, so my takeaway from today is Carry on smoking for now eat more pizza? And she laughed her ass off. Well, i suppose it is but pls don't tell anyone i said it 🤣 There was context, obvs. Woman is a saint, the doc in Keshed is named after her.

#MusicHistory On this day, 1985, The Pogues released their brilliant 2nd album Rum Sodomy & the Lash. The cover art is a re-working by Peter Mennim of The Raft of the Medusa by the French Romantic painter Théodore Géricault, completed in 1819. The original painting hangs in The Louvre in Paris.
