Blustery day, isn't it? Here's the National Grid: Live generation data. Wind and solar are generating 74.2% of our electricity. Gas is generating 13.1%. And yet our household electricity prices are pegged to... the volatile price of gas. Which is the basis on which the right attacks... renewables.

Writing doesn't always mean the physical act. It requires time to think. Thinking time is writing time, but it's something not everyone has the brain space for. Writing is missing those experiences that mean no time to think freely e.g. caring responsibilities, fighting for rights etc.

Inclusion isn’t just a nice "tag on" if there’s time and money. It’s imperative. Not just socially, but commercially, says Beth Cox in our recent Comment piece 👇 #BookSky

Yes, they might.
And he should wear it as a badge of honour.
Standing up for humanity, for science and a habitable planet.
Where's the hazard in that?

Just discovered an old review from 2023 of my graphic memoir.

Thank you!

What is the deadline, please?

Are you a disabled, chronically ill, or neurodivergent writer with a recent or forthcoming book? If so, query us about our new book review and interview series. We'd love to celebrate your work!

Bit overwhelmed with family things at the moment tbh. Sorry.

This is more about work related things than anything else.
