Longshot but hypothetically (*cough cough*) if you’re a teacher/librarian and a children’s author was to give a speech at a literacy/reading conference, what would you like them to talk about? 👀 #kidlituk #childrensbooks #ukkidlit

Go watch The Running Man, but head out just after he escapes from the ‘let’s make Stephen King fans happy’ house. The last twenty minutes is … muddled. Just imagine that once he’s made a second ‘never been done’ take down that he makes it Canada and takes a long nap.

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 42:

MeToo did not go far enough. People were saying "MeToo has gone too far" when it had barely just picked up momentum.

It was an attempt at reckoning with how institutionally misogynistic and sexually exploitative most institutions are and what women are constantly put through. So it was crushed.

Fuck you. It was a temporary moment in time when people decided, for the first time, that 20 women were finally equal to one man.

My hub commented on my good mood earlier today. And I think it’s because I interviewed an architect today who specializes in building top-notch hospitals in poor places. It was so good to speak to someone doing good. I know lots of people doing good maybe I just need to speak with them more often!
