In which I fawn all over George Saunders as he talks about Lincoln in the Bardo, books, writing and how to respond to the madness. A lovely night, a lovely man.

Watch now: Next release from the #UEALitFestArchive is #GeorgeSaunders short story writer & winner of the Booker Prize for #LincolnInTheBardo in conversation with @Langeskov spring 2017 @UEALitFest View here: https://t.co/dEA8IcSYWQ & @NewWritingNet The reading is something else!

@jonathanliew you’ve absolutely smashed that, son.

[Tice Cin @ticecin]

We have made a fundraiser managed by Gboyega's sister Rose to help with the next steps and to upheld this beautiful man's legacy.
It will go towards the Gboyega Odubanjo Foundation.

All our love to you all.

Too sad to write words about the news now filling my Twitter feed 😞 so sharing my favourite poem by Gboyega instead.

'and the sun all the way up there' 💔

[Philip Langeskov @Langeskov]

This is so profoundly sad. I knew Yega a little when he was in Norwich. He had such fire, such wit and such talent. Sending strength to his family and the many many friends who loved him so much.

[The Book Hive @bookhive]

We know the wonderful Gboyega has lots of friends here in Norwich, so if you know where he is or even if you just think you’ve seen him, please call 101 to contact Northamptonshire Police quoting the reference number MPD1/2619/23.

Big day tomorrow at UEA.

We need as many of you to come out for our first local strike day as we fight to avoid compulsory redundancies.

If they come for one of us, they come for all of us.

@cliffchapman I’d just watch Severance on a loop for 3 months. Then I’d renew my subscription and watch Severance on a loop until there’s a second series.

[Joseph Williams @lifeisnotanovel]

The proposed cuts at UEA do not have to happen. The Arts and Humanities faculty does not have to be targeted in this way. UEA is still a very rich university ...for some. UEA writers: please sign & share our open letter to UEA's (mis)managers: https://t.co/KubVP8fMnm Thank you!

[Philip Langeskov @Langeskov]

@Tom_Benn @YoungWriterYear Beautiful ❤️ - also: congratulations.

[UEA UCU says join a union @UEA_UCU]

We need your support!
SIGN AND SHARE THIS OPEN LETTER to oppose plans for massive redundancies at #UEA.
The letter has been drafted by UEA staff and organised jointly by all three campus trade unions.

@KieranD It is actually a lot better than good. Subscribe immediately. Watch it fast once, then watch it slower a second time. Then cancel subscription. (Unless you want to watch Ted Lasso, which is good, but not (nearly) as good).

[Boiler House Press @bhousepress]

We’re so proud of @benpester’s book and so pleased he’s got some extra recognition for his brilliant work through the @EHUShortStory prize. Congratulations to all those long-listed! 🧡❤️‍🔥🧡

[Philip Langeskov @Langeskov]

Yes, Ben! Yes!

[Philip Langeskov @Langeskov]

I've mentioned Little Boy (@bhousepress) before. Here linked - in its capacity to astonish - to David Keenan's Monument Maker, it is a book that has so far been read by a select and discerning few. If you fancy joining them, you can do so here:

@crawjill @TheLondonMag @bhousepress @WhiteRabbitBks 🙏

@Nicklezard Let the tears flow; you are not alone.

[Philip Langeskov @Langeskov]

@KieranD That's the spirit...

[Philip Langeskov @Langeskov]

A book so good that it feels vulgar - if not offensive - to say that you can buy it here, but you can buy it here: https://t.co/cixrV6EiDP
