Thank you, thank you, thank you to @paul_mc_veigh who braved snow + Southern Rail to share so much writing gold with us yesterday in his characteristically generous, insightful + energetic way. If you get a chance to go to his First Page masterclass, GO.

Looking forward to reading Paper Losses by inimitable Lorrie Moore at this morning’s Short Story Reading Club. Here’s Gary Shteyngart, who keeps a photo of Moore by his bed, reading it for the New Yorker. #shortstories #amreading newyorker.com/books/page-tur…
Excited to be doing Dubliners at our Short Story Reading Club tomorrow - a collection that took 10yrs, two publishers & a lot of bravery to finally print. This may be the best author response to a rejection letter ever written
