The arrival of SECRET KEEPERS, my second book (from @bellepointpress.bsky.social) and first short-story collection. I never dreamed I'd have one book, much less two. Thank you to all its readers, past, present, and future. 💚💙📚
Congrats @ttbrader.bsky.social 🥰🥰
Cover reveal for SECRET KEEPERS, my second book (from Belle Point Press) and first short-story collection! Coming March 25, 2025 Now open for preorders: bellepointpress.com/products/sec... #bookbirds #writing #authors #newreleases
Started reading Hotel World by Ali Smith and it's incredible how every so often you can just immediately tell from a book's first chapter that it's going to be the kind of revelatory life-changing read you do so much searching for
New from Paper Visual Art, Essays on Film. Contributors include Ali Smith, Maggie Armstrong, and Cathy Sweeney.
“her grandfather’s garden, a place she still describes excitedly. I think everything I’m trying to do here is not so much the plants but to see if I can recreate the feelings I’ve experienced in my grandfather’s garden. I can see the expectation put upon the trees and hedges…’ -Alice Vincent
So looking fwd to spring, mainly because of this collection 💚

Just as I promised myself to cut back on the book buying, Ali Smith is interviewed on the radio about her book in which people are called 'unverified' and hence can't access anything online. "Information is not the same as having knowledge" she says. The book is inspired by UK library closures.
Ali Smith discusses the authoritarian themes in her new novel 'Gliff'
In Ali Smith's latest novel, "Gliff," a brother and sister befriend a horse in a dystopian future. NPR's Scott Simon explores the issue of authoritarianism with the novelist and playwright.

“We should be like foresters used to be. Because how does anyone do anything if they’ve lost their bearings, and their bearings are in the machine?” Ali Smith speaks with Anna Russell about her new book, “Gliff.”

I’m excited to be participating in my all-time favorite book fest, the Tennessee Williams Festival, this Friday in New Orleans. My book, LETTING IN AIR AND LIGHT, will be for sale there by Octavia Books. The rest of the weekend, I’ll be attending the fest. Like I said, it’s my favorite.
Thanks to my Dickens Fellowship of New Orleans friends for the LETTING IN AIR AND LIGHT book party! Fun with Prosecco and “Drood.”
My second book event is this weekend! A festival I’ve attended many times, as a reader. It’s always interesting and entertaining.
