Very authory day yesterday, giving a talk at the @OpenUniversity symposium on writing place in fiction at the v imposing Senate House. Then off to @Hatchards summer party where I completely failed to take any photos but did nearly spill champagne on William Dalrymple and wore these rather splendid shoes. So that’s all right then. Thank you all for having me!
