Our show #Overlooked explores disability and mental health and other people’s misconceptions and prejudice. @josierones if you’re still in Edinburgh @edfringe we’d love for you to come and see us if you had the time! We’re gutted we got here too late for Triple Threat 😩

@That_Simone_ I hate this dilemma. I think it should have an apostrophe as it's shorthand for Asda's supermarket, but Waterstones dropped theirs cos no-one ever used it. Hope that helps 😃

[Jane Martin @janemartinwrite]

@holly_bourneYA Absolutely loved this book. Really made me rethink stuff. Was so invested in Fern.

@The_Globe Shakespeare is a bit of a pickle recently

[Jane Martin @janemartinwrite]

@The_Globe Shakespeare is not perfect, there are flaws in his works, but that doesn't make him any less of an incredible storyteller, commentator and observer of people.

If you don’t believe that children’s books are foundational to how this country works, then please explain why the first stop after Paddington is Reading?

A quote from the lovely @matthaig1 today. “Get a routine baggy enough to live in”
It doesn’t matter if you take 10 minutes here or hours there, tap notes into a phone on the train, sit in a cafe or at a big desk. Whenever, wherever. You’re writing. Good for you!
