Really enjoyed writing my first review for the brilliant @Corridor8 & visiting this group show of work by women painters - 'The Pearls and the Oyster'. The pictures show work from the show by Nan Collantine and Jayne Simpson.

If you haven't read 'Medieval re-creation and translation' - a dialogue piece between E. K. Myerson & myself about working in the archives of Edwin Morgan & Derek Jarman as medievalists - this is the perfect moment to do so! @EdMorganTrust
It's a great issue all round!

I have a ticket to this brilliant @McrLitFest event tomorrow with Romalyn Ante & Imtiaz Dharker going spare, if anybody wants it?
I'm desperate to go but I have a flu/covid jab in the afternoon & I'm not sure if I'll make it manchesterliteraturefestival.co.uk/events/imtiaz-…
