One of the greatest dance critics of all time, #ClementCrisp has died today. Well worth reading some of his collected writings: Clement Crisp Reviews: Six decades of dance, published by Troubador Publishing @matadorbooks


Anyone not reading #ShirleyHughes again for comfort today? #Dogger or #Alfie – what's your first choice?

I will never forget the day Shirley Hughes let me hold the real Dogger (here he is), and I can't even think about that book without crying at Bella being SO kind. What a beautiful, impactful legacy which will live on forever. Thank you Shirley Hughes you will be terribly missed x

Devon in glorious sunshine yesterday, a welcome distraction from world events. Hard to focus on work today, but proofreading demands 100% attention.

Spying is a murky trade. So, too, can be editing. The crucial thing is to respect the author's choices, however bad you might think their work is! chapterhousepublishing.co.uk/call-for-the-d…
