@Meta do you want people to use your platform? I have done so with enthusiasm and always within guidelines. Now you suspended my account for what a hacker posted on my account. It is over 30 days since I appealed and I have heard nothing. – at Grimston, England

So excited. I have discovered Sorrolla through this stunning exhibition in Valencia. I wonder what William would have thought? He like Sorrolla loved light fundacionbancaja.es/
What a lovely way to start the week. A wonderful review of my book Charlotte Brontë’s Devotee amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/review/10…
Returning it in person @TheLondonLib was pretty good too! A warm welcome.
Receiving a book from @TheLondonLib has for me all the excitement that #CharlotteBronte must have felt on receiving the #CornhillParcels from William Smith Williams. It is a not-the-21st century joy.
William worked for many year with Charles Hullmandel Lithographer at 49 Great Marlborough Street before taking a job as Reader at Smith Elder where he read the manuscript of Jane Eyre. The premises were next to the building to which Schott moved in 1908.
A great man and colleague of William Smith Williams williamsmithwilliams.co.uk/2…

My great great uncle William Smith Williams must have felt excited. He had other thoughts on his mind: his paper On Lithography which he was to deliver at the @theRSAorg in December 1847. williamsmithwilliams.co.uk/2… – at West Midlands, England
The task of researching my great great uncle William Smith Williams was not easy with so little written about him. It was though very rewarding not least with the joy of Charlotte Brontë’s letters to him about his concerns as a father of daughters. williamsmithwilliams.co.uk/?…

This is a fascinating podcast from @PhilWriter on the history (and future) of British manufacturing. Such knowledge - and presented in such an accessible, enjoyable way. @penswordbooks
