@anfurman.bsky.social Hi Adam. I have recently purchased 2 lovely prints via Architectural Icons. I'm very impressed. Great products and service. Many thanks.
Fantastic night with Telegram Sam at Bognor’s 70’s festival!
Happy post. My friend Tony Christie was presented with the Music Icon award last night and a framed handwritten lyric by Neil Sedaka and Tony’s key to the city of Amarillo raised £20,000 for the Nordoff-Robbins music charity!
Something hopefully uplifting for a change 🙏 youtu.be/UAW2zFLaRVM?...

It always happens doesn't it? Billions splurged on tech and science to create the perfect book. Tik Tokery & algorithms do not butter any parsnips. Writing is hard graft. Together with great booksellers and librarians and word of mouth. We put books into readers' hands. @thebookseller.com
These are bought on Amazon - heads-up to any carers/guardians that may have needed to get one.

Right, #Booksky, used to get 100's of replies to these on Twitter so.... My day job is buying books for 34 libraries, help me and my customers out by telling me the best fiction book(s) you've read in 2025. Rules: can be any genre and doesn't have to be new, but NOTHING self-published gogogo! 📚

Brilliant!! @orwellprize.bsky.social @nybooks.com @financialtimes.com
George Orwell claimed that prose writers have four ‘great motivations’: sheer egoism; aesthetic enthusiasm; historical impulse; and political purpose. Why did I write The Accidental Immigrants? Read the answer here: lithub.com/making-sense... @ofmooseandmen.bsky.social @orwellprize.bsky.social

Heavens to Murgatroyd. What a bin fire. I know it can't solve everything but Leonard and Hungry Paul by @ronanhession.bsky.social Is a literary salve for the soul.
I concur. This is every bit as bleary-eyed and melancholy as cover suggests, but free from the cliches that too easily conflate problem drinking with a kind of lush romanticism as the writer tries to reassemble the disparate shards of memory and selves shattered by life at the bottom of a bottle.
Moved by @bobbygant.bsky.social’s affecting collection of poems ‘A Decade of Drinking with Ghosts’ from @razurcutsmag.bsky.social. You can order here: razurcuts.com/shop/a-decad...
This is why we publish. The Accidental Immigrants @jomcmillan.bsky.social First they came for... @orwellprize.bsky.social @theguardian.com @thetimes.com @newstatesman.com @prospectmagazine.co.uk
