Unsurprisingly Prudence and the Crow's #Eurovision2023 votes are very much going to Austria and their song about being possessed by the ghost of Edgar Allen Poe

Of all the many newsletters I get, I think I probably enjoy HADES' as much as any...

📚 To celebrate #WorldBookDay we spoke to Rachel, from Ham's Parade's End Books and Adam, from The Sheen Bookshop what they love most about running their shops, local events, and of course, their favourite book recommendations!

Hear from them here 👇

“Before he was a dungeon-pilfering rogue, a Starfleet captain, or a handsome prince, Chris Pine was an English major… dude still loves to read. And he reads everything.”

NEWS! I've been developing a one-man show/comic lecture based on my book The Magic of Terry Pratchett for the Edinburgh Fringe. It has the full backing of Sir Terry's estate. I'll be doing two work-in-progress previews in London, April 23 and May 25: https://t.co/9V7STY06h4

The latest @vittlesmagazine contains 'Good Food Again: Culinary Imagination in Post-war English Novels', by Vida Adamczewski, (excellent, insightful), and 'Every mention of food and drink in Brideshead Revisited in chronological order', by Deirdre Tynan, bliss. Recommended.

One of the books on the coffee table in Central Perk in Friends is the Kit Williams art book, Out of One Eye. Unexpected. It's there across multiple seasons.

Aha, currently the #patclibrary does not yet extend to the roof, good to know there is hope!

Ten years?! What is time? I feel the need to point out that I *love* Sarah & Duck - Crow once made me a Sarah & Duck cake for my birthday 😊 marvellous storytelling, always.

[Sarah & Duck @Sarah_and_Duck]

As promised in the insta post just now - link to an excellent article about the illustration and design trio, Bentley/Farrell/Burnett, responsible for many of the most striking book covers in such a short period of time! https://t.co/oChGpX8xSr

It’s Patricia Highsmith’s birthday; here’s some feline literary trivia.

Muriel Spark adopted Highsmith’s cat, Spider, after Highsmith could no longer look after him. Spark sent a telegram, which Highsmith kept ‘til she died:

‘Spider is safe with me forever. He is greatly loved’

This is the most excellent challenge for tackling the #tbrpile XD

Merry 2023! Now, what to read first?

My @Princeton colleague @amariewomack has not only curated a remarkable exhibition of the Toni Morrison Papers but also coordinated a year's worth of teaching, art-making, and programming around it. Visit SITES OF MEMORY in its different iterations in 2023 https://t.co/cnDJfmr1Gi

@faintdreams 😊 merry Bookmas to you both! I must say I'm especially partial to the Asimov detective novels, not quite like any others! 💕📚~P

[PrudenceAndTheCrow @PrudenceCrow]

Susan Cooper's The Dark is Rising provided the inspiration for our December #patcbox envelope art, and this marvellous new audio adaptation is absolutely worth your time, especially if you've never had the pleasure of this midwinter magic.
