Quick tip for anyone applying for job roles - try and make the CV or coverletter relevant to the employer or role. "I am x,y,z..." (followed by generic list of attributes, skills etc) isn't nearly as impactful as "I can see that you are doing x, I have experience in x...."
Very early in my first job @BBCBooks a member of the public rang me to correct a mistake in our Match of the Day book. It was only at the end of the call that I realised the 'old man' was actually the author #JohnMotson and only today that I've realised he was only 49!
Thank you @uk_publishers@IngramContent for a great day learning about all the fantastic services you provide and giving our students chance to see how the books they are working on will be printed. @Kingstonjourno
Very relaxing start to my working day listening to @BookshapersPod about the very first typesetting machine: the ‘pianotype’. Thanks @mafunyane and @bittenpub xx
