Happy to announce I've founded a new prize for UK writers - the RSL Scriptorium Awards - which offers my pension-investment cottage on the Kent coast to writers for free for up to a month each. Applications open Spring 2025. A jury will choose the writers & I will have zero involvement in the selection. For more details, follow @RSLiterature, visit their website, and check out this Guardian article. Sadly, due to ongoing attacks, I have to state that this is a philanthropic gesture, I am offering the cottage for free & further supporting the prize & I am, therefore, of course, in no way earning any income from it. (I know, go figure) I have set up several literature inclusion projects over the decades (look under 'Community' on my website) & this one shares the Booker Bounty!

Thank you to everyone for sharing and for your kind words. The fact it has resonated with so many people is incredibly moving.
So much love ❤️❤️❤️
