Had a very kind rejection praising my writing while saying my novel sits awkwardly between genres - is it so difficult finding representation for literary fiction? If any agents are looking for commercial upmarket book club fiction set in the South of Italy, I #amquerying 👀

Fixed it for you, @Keir_Starmer.
The UK is an ally to Israel's atrocities in Gaza and the West Bank.
Now is the time to make our voices heard: Call on the UK Government to end its complicity.

Mass starvation is spreading in Gaza. Our colleagues and the people we serve are wasting away.
It is time for governments to take decisive action and save lives:

⚫ “Young men, dying for a bag of flour.”
In the wake of the killing of our former colleague Abdullah Hammad on 3 July in Gaza, another of our colleagues, who was at and survived the same attack by Israeli forces which killed Abdullah, shared the following testimony:
“We went to Khan Younis as we heard there would be aid trucks there. Five trucks were parked to let people come in and take what they could. Then the [Israeli] tanks started advancing and we could see a lot of snipers in the area, too.
“Suddenly shots started coming from every direction. Whomever got a bag of flour, got shot in the head. There were so many bodies on the ground. After that, a quadcopter came to where we were hiding under the rubble of one of the houses. [The quadcopter] told us to put our hands up and come out. It said, ‘you are not allowed to take flour. Keep walking and don’t pick up any of the dead or wounded from the ground’. Young men, dying for a bag of flour.”
