I've made the decision to leave this platform. The vitriol and misinformation is horrendous. Thank you to all those who have engaged positively. #misinformation #writingcommunity #iamwriting

Congratulations @DorothyKoomson on receiving your second honorary doctorate of letters, this one from @uniofbrighton.
She’s not only a brilliant writer, she’s also Britain’s biggest-selling Black female author of adult fiction and a huge inspiration and advocate to other writers particularly for marginalised communities.

What an interesting evening @KemptownBkshop. Tarot and creativity for writers. I'm a bit sceptical about these things, but what I found was a useful way of reflecting on my writing blocks and inspirations as well as prompts for stories 1/
It helped me think about how I use procrastination as a block to writing. It was also a way of giving prompts for stories. Has anyone else used tarot for writing? Thanks to @CathyHayward7 & Kate Coffey 2/

Calling memoir and personal essay readers: Do you know of a personal essay I can read online that writes from the perspective of misremembering, or where the fallibility of memory is a subject in itself? Thanks in advance. #memoir #writingcommunity

Thank you @kimmoorepoet for this delightful essay on Carol Ann Duffy & exquisite celebration of learning to love life through poetry
Duffy once said:
“A poem can say in so few words something so precious and startling that it almost enters us.”'
