We have a very important meeting next Friday. It would be great if we could take a petition with 1,000 signatures to that meeting.
We need around 125 more. Can you help?

This book’s great, structurally a little bit Sebaldian but with very much Pawson’s own humour (not something ol’ WG was renowned for) and outlook. It’s a real skill to produce something which feels associative and improvised but also inevitable. Bravo!
Another brilliant book from @prototypepubs - it feels completely its own thing and I don’t suppose any of them influenced @niewview, but I found distant echoes of Joanna Russ, T Pynchon and early Harry Mathews in this fantastic novel. Just another way of saying I loved it. Bravo!

it was a total thrill to write the foreword to the paperback of The Passengers. It’s one of my favourites. @FaberBooks @willashon

It's absurd that the 136,000 young people who are homeless can't sign our petition to end youth homelessness.
With 120 other orgs we call @GOVUK to create a #PlanForThe136k.
Sign our petition today to solve the crisis for good: buff.ly/4aWX1kv

ALT The 136,000 young people who were homeless last year can't sign our petition to end youth homelessness. They need an address to do that. Will you sign it because they can't! #PlanForThe136k Image of girl trying to sign her name on an ipad but frowning because she isn't able to. She is wearing a pink fleece and pink scrunchies. Top left a black star with writing: sign for the 136k
Horrible news about Neil Kulkarni (@KaptainKulk) - one of my favourite music writers and an early supporter of Big Dada. Please consider making a donation to this crowdfunder to help his daughters at this brutal time. gofund.me/f0d23137
What an honour to have Wendy’s words at the front of my book!
This is just such a brilliant book. I felt very lucky to be asked to write the foreword to the paperback, coming out at the end of this month. @FaberBooks @willashon

Book of the day is a modern classic from our big music section upstairs. @willashon is the best - his latest Passengers release was one of our books of the year. This is a genius piece of writing on one of the greatest debut records ever released, Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers).
