Just gonna leave this here as a reminder: this happened. Spot the difference. I'd say something many of us know in our bones about UK publishing, but instead I want to thank the 786 of you who stood up for what is right today.

Join me in conversation with guest authors Dr. Sarah Thomas Dr. Amanda Thomson Samantha Clark Dr Joanna Wolfarth as we deep dive into identity, belonging & the interplay of art & writing in creative practice. Tickets available (Pay What You Can) #memoir #inspiring eventbrite.co.uk/e/wild-women-w…

Really looking forward to this on Thursday. Join us!

This is so utterly enraging & depressing. I hope, against the odds here, those responsible are held to account. We pay, in so many ways, for this.

What a treat to be in conversation with this lot! Join us 💫

Yesterday we buried our much loved Mark Watson in a woodland equinox ceremony as we crossed the bridge from winter in spring. Fires were lit in many places. An eagle-whistle sounded. The sun broke through. Butterflies came. A magical day for a magical man. We were all blessed.

Something big is coming.

If to roam is our right, Wild Service is our responsibility - a reciprocal relationship with nature our countryside so desperately needs.

Our book, Wild Service.
Coming April 24th.

THREAD 🧵Did you know that Gaza is home to hundreds of artists, both men and women? It is literally the city with the highest number of artists relative to its population. In this thread, I will introduce you to dozens of them. These Gazans are unbreakable, sensitive, and amazing…

The Government is planning to override juries if they make the ‘wrong’ decision in acquitting those peacefully but desperately alerting us to a worsening crisis they are continuing to ignore. No longer democracy, is it?

buy a book from their Palestinian Authors list today and The Portobello Bookshop will donate the proceeds ❤️🇵🇸

this is part of indie bookshops raising funds for writers at risk #valentines4palestine

support these bookshops, support Palestinian authors, and support writers who speak out

This is WILD. The idea that ACE funding, which most arts orgs need to survive, might be taken away because of individuals speaking out about Palestine is horrifying.

Is it even a ‘political’ statement to call out genocide, in Palestine or anywhere else? It shouldn’t be!

Such a good & necessary piece. Thanks Keiran Goddard!

Many of us feel furious about the state of the UK's rivers––but also powerless.

PRESS RELEASE 📰: swan.ac/SUDTP24

Wrote about volcanoes our volcanic history and the current situation in Grindavík for The Guardian theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Important information brought to light - our Government is complicit and not by accident, by desire.

Latest images show that lava has now reached the town of Grindavík. The area had already been evacuated overnight so no lives are in danger, but it is incredibly sad to see homes engulfed. Our thoughts are very much with the people of Grindavík today. #Iceland #eruption

A volcano rumbled back to life on the Reykjanes peninsula. A crack split open at Sundhnúkagígar crater row, just north of Grindavík, around 7:57 this morning. The molten fury started its relentless crawl. Lava now grips homes in the eastern part of Grindavík.
