Here’s a short story about a short story for #NationalShortStoryDay. Back in September, just after @commapress reissued Nigel Kneale’s Tomato Cain and Other Stories, I had chance to look through the Kneale archive on the Isle of Man… and I discover another Kneale short story.

George Orwell's "1984". Watched this again yesterday at Derby Film Festival. Was blown away about how powerful it still is...one, I am truly proud to have been a part of. Hope the BFI does its re-release, under consideration.

This lady I know & I went to Buckingham Palace yesterday where she received an MBE. Extremely proud of her - she was told she’d never have a career. Not only does she have one she’s encouraged media outlets to give other disabled talent opportunities, campaigning even whilst ill.

Took my first-ever visit to the Isle of Man this week, had a fascinating time. Too many discoveries to share, but here's one: Nigel Kneale only lived round the corner from the Bee Gees, just not quite at the same time.
