@AkiSchilz How to construct or join a community in which books are discussed and readings held, including small press and seff-published works. Poetry does this well, prose not so much.

@pascalepoet Very best wishes.

Time is running out.

I’m proud to be one of 1,176 letter co-signatories calling on MPs to back the #CANBill in this week’s private members’ bill ballot. The time for science-led legislation to tackle the climate-nature crisis is now. @Ed_Miliband @SteveReedMP https://t.co/B5aj4jIefF

@OliveFSmith It has to mean real rootedness in more than one discipline, including an understanding of what is controversial in both. Jonathan Kramnick is good on this, from a genuinely intellectually ambitious viewpoint, in Paper Minds.
