Announcing Becky Bowler’s recent archival project: taking piles and piles of unsorted manuscripts, putting them in order, and cataloguing them. 🗂️🗂️🗂️🗂️ Phew! @GreenBowlerHat

May Sinclair News!

A big trunk of Sinclair's papers was donated to the University of Sussex in 2013, but the papers were all out of order and it was difficult to work out what was there. No more! They are in order, and they are catalogued. https://t.co/i2BBxQ8TzB
