Spuddle: a useful verb from the 17th century that means to work feebly and ineffectively, because your mind is elsewhere or you haven’t quite woken up yet.

[Ilkley Literature Fringe Festival @ilkleylitfringe]

A huge fan of Nadiya Hussain? Can't say no to Jacqueline Wilson? If cricket is your game, how about Moeen Ali? Or, if you love a good laugh, why not book for Susan Calman? Something for everyone this year at #ILF18. Get ready to book tickets on 28th Aug!

Two hundred years after the birth of Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights – considered a ‘pagan’ and ‘repellent’ novel at the time – is now a cornerstone of literary culture. @GuardianBooks runs the numbers on her extraordinary achievement. https://t.co/f2ZYVRBTL2
