For my Sunday morning reading, I finished @nickclegg 's How to Save the Internet - which I don't feel has been given the credit it deserves. Thoughts here 👇

Finally got around to this. Clever conceit, and definitely disturbing. Fascinated to see what she does next 👇

What accounts for an artist's durability - brand power and reputation, or the product itself?

This excellent study by @eve_ers examines Taylor Swift's unprecedented ability to engage her audience 👇

🤔 Musings on the changing content landscape with an obscure second-hand-bookshop find. This book would never had got through a major publisher's editorial meeting today - but would make for an excellent Substack ✒️

Who remembers book clubs? This is a classic piece of mid-twentieth-century publishing history 👇

We've been working on this with @ManuMidolo & Peter Gillman for a couple of years now so it's exciting to see it out in the world as the leader in the Sunday Times today 📖

A great loss, though what a life! A Woman of Substance is one of my favourite novels of all time. BTB completely redefined the role of the heroine. Her novels were both genre-busting and unputdownable. RIP.
