[Jack Chadwick @jckchd]

Delighted, thrilled, grateful - above all else, chuffed😉- to share that after a seventy year absence, Jack Hilton is finally returning to print next year

And with no better a team behind him than @ndskidmore and @vintagebooks !

[Sophia Spiers @sophia_spiers]

Huge congrats to everyone !
What a shortlist

So gutted I won’t be at Harrogate this year 😭 😭 😭

[Helen S Fields @Helen_Fields]

I’ve read 3 badly written celebrity fiction books recently. 3 books that wouldn’t have got a publishing deal but for the name on the cover.That’s 3 advances that could have gone to real writers who could have done something amazing. 3 books so bad the editor couldn’t save them 🙁

Similar but (slightly) different cover for the paperback of No One Round Here Reads Tolstoy, published on 4 May, 2023 by Canongate. Big thanks to @BenMyers1 and @themarkrad for their kind words. Still wearing that ace jumper.

One of my aims for 2023 is to provide as many opportunities for people as I can.

It's that simple. #HNY

@bryanblears This is amazing though!

[dialectwriters @dialectwriters]

Dialect is an inclusive platform & we've been seriously searching for writers of diverse heritage who live in the south west to work with on a new project - please can you let me know if this is you or if you would recommend any writer friends who might fit the bill? TIA 🙏
