@DiLeed @courttianewland Aw, thank you!

There was some particularly amazing news over @thegoodagencyuk yesterday. Every one who supported on Kickstarter helped the agency exist, so thank you for helping make this happen!

[The Good Literary Agency @thegoodagencyuk]

We couldn’t be prouder to have sold our first big book but sad the headline doesn’t mention it or the author’s name.

Rosanna Amaka. Book of Echoes.

Remember those names, we’re very confident you’re going to be hearing them a lot!

[The Good Journal @thegoodjournal]

Oh wow what a lovely thread

[Farhana Khalique @HanaKhalique]

A bit late, but loved all the pieces in @thegoodjournal issue 1. Really looking forward to reading the forthcoming issue 2, plus submissions are now open for issue 3 - so submit! :) Meanwhile, here are some of my faves from Issue 1...

@staybalanced_ @bobimono We’re a literary journal publishing essays, short stories & poems by British writers of colour and @thegoodagencyuk exists to represent writers who aren’t well represented in UK publishing. Also check out @OWNITLDN who are an amazing company / platform doing brilliant things

[courttia newland @courttianewland]

Yes please! Would love to see some work from you!

[The Good Journal @thegoodjournal]

@13141516rrrr It’s [email protected] or you can just DM your email address. Basically we need your email to track you properly in our system

[The Good Journal @thegoodjournal]

@vrflash @nikeshshukla @paul_mc_veigh @courttianewland We encourage writers to self identify so it would be up to each individual

[The Good Journal @thegoodjournal]

@13141516rrrr Please can you email us so we can track your order?

[The Good Journal @thegoodjournal]

If you submitted for issue 2 please check your inboxes. We’re sorry if we didn’t pick you this time but submissions for issue 3 will open soon.

[The Good Journal @thegoodjournal]

@sjahmed01 They are able to and many people have. The website isn’t perfect but we’re afraid it’s about as good as we can do on the budget and time we have, but we’ll have a look as to whether we can make it any easier or more obvious

[The Good Journal @thegoodjournal]
