Great to see my friend @NydiaMadeWords’s marvellous book #Sycorax included in this article.
Wow! There's an incredible piece in the New York Observer about the best spin-offs, retellings, etc of classics. There's Demon Copperhead, Hamnett, The Hours, Sycorax... oh, and Estella's Revenge. What brilliant company to be in! @DHHlitagency

This! 💪🏼
Tonight’s huge climbdown is testament to the countless disabled people who have tirelessly fought these cuts. Yes, UC was a loss and there’s more to do, but let’s not underplay this: a government with a vast majority has been forced to u-turn. Because of the disabled community.
