Is there something strange about that person with a hundred house plants? Or something enviable? Do plant people know something others don’t?

🌱 PLANT LIFE—stories of plants, people, and the earth they share—is out now in PRINT! 🌱

So happy to see this issue of LR, the No. 11 literary magazine on Kindle! It has a piece of my creative nonfiction, a love letter to my 20+-year-old amaryllis, the longest living being I’ve lived with! Please share, read, buy the issue, or subscribe to LR!

@LondonReaderMag is open until 11/15 for "Plant Life."

"Stories, poems, essays, and art about the secret lives of plants and the people who live with them."

This is a contemporary magazine, but many suggested prompts for the call are speculative.

Is there something strange about that person with all the plants? A time lapse of a house plant shows instead a house pet. Electrical signals in a tree play a beautiful symphony.

Maurice Mcleod has an outstanding record would be an brilliant parliamentarian representing the people of #Peckham and #Camberwell

Instead he faces shameful behavior here from party officials.

@LondonReaderMag
awaits a response from @UKLabour

[Maurice Mcleod (he/him) @mowords]

Last night, I was blocked from standing to be the next Labour MP for Camberwell & Peckham.

I'm gutted. The Party is saying it has no place for an anti-racist socialist like me in Parliament.

Thank you so much to all those who supported & worked on my campaign.
