To celebrate the reveal of the 2020 #WomensPrize shortlist (and to relieve one person's lockdown boredom), we're giving away a set of all six shortlisted books 📚
To #win, retweet this and comment with the shortlisted book you're most looking forward to reading.
So this was the conversation with @ASOS_HeretoHelp on Saturday. Have I heard from them with the refund? Of course not.
It’s so frustrating, especially as I thought I was finally getting somewhere.
So it looks like I’m going to the ball without a skirt. Ordered this from @asos and paid for next day delivery. @Hermesparcels failed to deliver. @ASOS_HeretoHelp tell me the courier has a window of a week in which to fix delays. In what way’s that next day? #writingcommunity

So my parcel has finally arrived. @ASOS_HeretoHelp despite offers to help have not responded to my private message and are oddly quiet about refunding the money I paid for next day delivery.
The thing is I don’t want a refund (apart from for the next day delivery). I just want the skirt to arrive and naively thought @ASOS would be upset to hear @Hermesparcels are letting them down.
Spent the weekend at @gladlib. Felt very sad to come home. If only it was possible to bottle the smell of old books and wood. It was a really lovely couple of days.
Earlier, someone told me a £20 book token was too much, because you can only buy so many books. Erm...

I remember asking #JudithKerr Kerr if the tiger symbolised the 1960s sexual revolution where normal mores and suburban life became upended by this wild and exotic creature. She told me no, it was about a tiger coming to tea.
I’m really excited to have my story ‘The Bible Didn’t Name Her’ in Ellipsis Zine.

We need to make empathy and compassion our purpose. And work towards it every day.

This morning I'm thinking about how the world seems to be getting angrier and more uncaring. So we need to be kinder.

Anyone for tea? New blog post is up. How to get into the coaching mindset daffodilcoachinguk.home.blog…
This proves that all those people who dog ear corners, are evil. Don’t get me started on the ones who bend book spines. Can they not hear the book screaming?
This is definitely something to support. I’m especially loving the idea of 7days a week access to books.
Our new second-hand bookshop is now open! Drop-in and have a browse - all proceeds go to towards the ongoing restoration of Delapré Abbey 📚
Open 7 days a week, 11am-4pm. Donations gratefully received!
