Today's #SmallJoy365 - listen to a podcast - hmmm - I really loved Melissa Harrison's 'The Stubborn Light of Things' during lockdown. Might revisit that & take delight in something twice over.

@underscrutiny I see almost everyone has suggested Kindred, (excellent) if you're interested in fiction, William Golding's 'The Inheritors' is worth the effort.

@Biggreenbooks @MorilloHall (I’m sorry this offer has gone - but I do recommend Joan Aiken’s book - The Way To Write For Children. It’s an extended essay more than a heavy duty ‘how to’ book, and is inspiring.)

Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End

Atul Gawande

Currently reading Atul Gawande’s ‘Being Mortal’. A good read - where good means sobering, heartfelt, important, desperate, hard, & sometimes hopeful. Probably good reading for anyone thresholding the latter part of their life course, or anyone who cares about/for someone who is.

Lorraine is just the most lovely - and her writing matches it. Huge congratulations on her newest - come for gorgeous prose and a protagonist stronger than the tides. Mother Sea is all that and more! Beautiful. https://t.co/MBpRtJ9W96

Today's #SmallJoy365 - listen to a story - so we went to hear Joanne Harris & The Storytime Band. Now I am full of wonderful stories. And an idea for something new. Listening is so different to reading. I had forgotten what it can do. https://t.co/esNsQ7CDCf
