I already own Table Manners, but if you don't, take advantage of this great offer and treat yourself to some fab short stories!

[Susmita Bhattacharya @Susmitatweets]

To celebrate this week of Table Manners on BBC Radio 4 Extra and @BBCSounds Sounds, my lovely publisher, @DahliaBooks , is doing a special offer on the book. Get it for £5 + p&p. It’ll make a lovely present for anyone who enjoys short stories 😊😊

All emerging writers schemes should include writers over 40 – writers can emerge at any age, and women writers especially are frequently prevented from taking up writing until later in life (as we well know)!

A rare day job post: Today marked the culmination of the @AdvanceHE Aurora women's leadership programme I started in March, with an in person session on 'Your Future in HE' - it's been a great experience, and really good to meet other participants in real life! #IAmAurora
