Reading expert by Roger Kneebone for @oncologybookclub.bsky.social
Love this about being an expert - ‘always aware they could do things better’
Last night hosting the @crxeate.bsky.social drs poetry event was just magical. A wonderful evening of words, connection & creativity. Thinking of hosting a regular open mic night for medics now!
Please do join in with this book club I help run!
Got my copy!
