I had a great conversation with ⁦@Lilydunnwriter⁩ about writing memoir. Widening the personal to tell the stories that matter, being an outsider, the oddness of watching your own life, and how memoir can show the sustained strangeness of the world. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/not…

For those who don't know, Zoe Gilbert and I set up a little teaching outfit @londonlitlab 5 years ago. We work closely together and we are also very good friends. A lovely coincidence is that on 17th March both our second books are going to be published. @mindandlanguage

When your academic PhD supervisor, after a final real, asks you to delete a few rogue full stops and make all the quote marks curly from straight, but signs off his email with 'this is good to go' - after five years, a divorce, a relocation, many midnight panics, I am weeping.

I was with you that weekend in Wales when the wheels came off. And we flew down the hill hard and fast and thrilling, dragging the world and its strangeness into the autumn with its barriers and No Parking. Thank you @JuliaBell uk.bookshop.org/books/a-wild-a… #WritingCommunity

As we wait, my mother turns to skeletal ghost woman. My father, brim, fill of the living, is now bent over, silent. I bury my head in my brother's shoulder. I feel his heart quaking. A beautiful poem by Susannah Vernon-Hunt #WildAndPreciousDailySnippets uk.bookshop.org/books/a-wild-a…

'The brutal weather when she turned eighteen had bruised her with bitterness. Her family split in two by a dagger of lightning. She'd learnt her lesson. Be weatherproof.' #WildAndPreciousDailySnippets Thanks, @tiredpsych uk.bookshop.org/books/a-wild-a… #WritingCommunity #addiction
