Creative work isn’t predictive: ‘It’s not like scanning all possible outcomes and then making a move. It’s essential not to know what’s coming next. Not to know how to continue the sentence. Not to know what is the start of the sentence.’ open.substack.com/pub/jeanette...

Message me if you fancy a free ticket to this reading tomorrow night, which will be fab. Stuck at home with nasty cold!

Just had my first chapbook, Consequences, accepted for publication in above / ground press’s innovative prose series (prose / naut) so I decided to finally finish my new website! www.susanrudy.uk

Finally deleted Facebook and Instagram when they gave me no choice: I’m not paying and I’m not consenting to ads. Looking forward to finding my friends and colleagues here, and to enjoying more actual Bluesky!

The sky so wants to be blue, but so far the morning sky over Wivenhoe rail station is grey!

Many thanks to Maddy Costa, Diana Damian Martin, and Mary Paterson for putting together this fabulous issue which asks: 'What does elasticity offer, or promise? How far can something (or we) stretch? Across how many locations, borders, crises?' somethingother.blog/2025/07/11/j...

Writers and artists who have academic affiliations: do you also have a website for your creative projects? Trying to decide if I need one, and if I do which platform to use. (I’ve used Squarespace in the past for organisations I’ve led but it’s expensive). Thanks for any thoughts!

Black and white image, probably a lithograph, depicting a hot air balloon in the middle of a field, surrounded by people. The image is captioned ‘Descent of the balloon in the valley of Elbern'.

Last day in my Banff Centre studio.

Created at the Banff Centre: one manuscript and cover image (by Alisa Ochoa, another Leighton artist), in process. Not capturable in photographs: hundreds of words and sentences, sharpening, slowly; dozens of conversations and so many thoughts; and sleeps, during the day, to take it all in.
