I'm so excited to be included in this anthology about regeneration, rewilding and the environment published by @renardpress.com and wow that cover design 🍃🍃 it comes out in November and you can pre-order it now direct or through Waterstones! My poem is called 'The old pines saw the military leave'.
Oh look @renardpress.com. After all those discussions with bookshops about whether to shelve TIME/LIFE as literary fiction or sci-fi, there’s a specific subgenre that fits my book *perfectly*
Prof. Dr Beth Singler@bvlsingler.bsky.social · last wk.Tbf, there's been a whole subgenre of 'hopepunk' for a little while now... Wikipedia says its 10 years old. Some suggestions: Several by Becky Chambers (😍 Monk and Robot books, and A Closed and Common Orbit) All Systems Red, Martha Wells Project Hail Mary, Andy Weir Interstellar, Christopher Nolan

Thank you lovely Will at @renardpress.com for sending me this gem. #SomethingBlackInTheLentilSoup by @reshmaruia.bsky.social - author of #StillLives - is out in a lovely new edition on 16th Sept, and I'm really looking forward to getting to know her debut novel! 💙📚
It’s been a bumper month here for reprints – so many of our classics shot out of print in August, but all back in stock and looking good 😎
Very happy to have prerecorded an interview for The Late Late Book Show starting next Wednesday at 11pm. I talk about my new chapbook Gregor @sunburntsaints.bsky.social, @beardedbadgerbooks.bsky.social Saltburn @renardpress.com - info in the link👇👇👇👇 thelatelatebookshow.co.uk
Arrived today: my copies of “Emergency Voltaire” from @renardpress.com… Everything that is any good in it is by Voltaire, in defiance of the smug-faced git holding the books below
Also, I've helped to put together three volumes of works by W S Gilbert for @renardpress.com (not to mention "Emergency Voltaire", a new selection from the sly old fox's writings which is due to hit the shelves very, very shortly...) renardpress.com/renard-autho...

I'm still very proud of my 2011 biography "Gilbert of Gilbert & Sullivan". I unearthed significant new information about his earlier life (before the age of 30), which helped me to put together a more coherent portrait of the man than in many previous accounts. thehistorypress.co.uk/publication/...
Gilbert of Gilbert and Sullivan
The author of The Pirates of Penzance, The Mikado, HMS Pinafore and the other great Savoy libretti, W S Gilbert, witty, caustic and disrespectful, was one of the celebrities of the late Victorian age....

Delighted to welcome Something Black in the Lentil Soup by @reshmaruia.bsky.social to the Renard list. First published 20y ago, set 30y before that, following young great-poet-to-be Kavi as he stumbles through the London literary set, it’s a joy to bring this comic gem back into print 🙌 Out 16/9!
