"Making waves" in a subset of the sector only. Ignores commercial fiction and non-fiction (not "literary" prize winning) as well as digital (not in TCM).
Basking at seeing two of my wonderful authors' books in the UK Kindle Top 100 this morning: -

Murder by Candlelight by Faith Martin &
The Perfect Christmas Village by @bellaosborneauthor.bsky.social
We don’t just need to encourage our children to read, we need to become a much louder voice in the national conversation:

Guinness West Indies Porter especially 😋
I am not competing here but it snowed here yesterday ❄️ (November!!) and therefore I made a beef and buckwheat casserole. Just the ticket but would have been even better with lardons. And Guinness obviously.

4 years ago, I started writing a book & almost immediately gave up. Then, tens of thousands of people responded to a Christmas M&S story I wrote on the other place & gave me the confidence that, if I finished it, someone might actually read it.
That book is now nominated for an award.
Writers! Would you like to have your book finished, ready and in front of publishers in six months’ time?

Kate Nash Literary Agency is now open to applications for our 2024 #BookCamp Mentorships. Full details here: katenashlit.co.uk/2023/11/09/e...
Absolutely buzzing at #fbf23 although I do want these to now be made mandatory at all book fairs
Here’s some nice numbers at #fbf23!

UK Publishing is world leading, worth €13.1 billion, and up 10.6% y-o-y.

Today: meeting. training, meeting. emails. meeting. desk lunch. fresh air walk. emails. meeting. break (book a restaurant for a publisher lunch). then it all goes FIRE (in a good way). Have to take break, kids need tea. Back at desk for the evening shift. #writingcommunity
Literary agents do a lot of strategy. This morning I have one strategic meeting followed by another strategic meeting... will need some fresh air at lunchtime! #writingcommunity
I'm here at the new manor!

What've I been doing today? Work, at my desk, apart from the AAA quarterly meeting (online) and doing a LIVE w/ #TheWritingSphere at lunchtime giving feedback to pitches. Fun (for me), bit daunting but useful for the aspiring authors.
