Great piece for @Writers_Artists here from my publisher @farhanashaikh. An industry that devalues short stories is bad for writers!
My piece 'Is being a short story writer sustainable?' is now live on @Writers_Artists.
Thank you for all your insights and for @AbiFAHynes for her help! writersandartists.co.uk/advi…

We've taken this very seriously. Here's a chart showing the true scale of the North-bat divide.
SO good! 💕
Saw @pandpsortof with @AbiFAHynes at @YorkTheatre yesterday & it was such a tonic - a hilarious retelling of Pride & Prejudice with a fantastic all female cast. We loved it - catch it on tour if you can! 👗👒🐎🎤

We rely on volunteers to make these events a success. You'll be leading a small audience group from one room to the next and generally making sure everyone is okay.
We're particularly looking for people to come and help us on Saturday 7th December.

I've written a piece on short story writing as a sustainable practice and the dangers of telling writers they should write a novel. If you have something to say about this, please let me know! DMs open or comment on here.
