Happy 17th blog birthday to me! stuckinabook.com/happy-blog-bir…
I so enjoyed talking about Kay Boyle with the Lost Ladies of Lit podcast!

We got us a new @BacklistedPod! The Children of Men by P.D. James, with @andrewhunterm Laura Thompson @johnmitchinson @birchos and me. Down with The Warden of England! Viva Phyllis! backlisted.fm/episodes/209-p…
We brought @AnneBoydRioux back to discuss two-time O. Henry-award winning writer Kay Boyle: lostladiesoflit.com/podcast/187-ka…
Through the mail slot today. Notes From the Henhouse: On Marrying a Poet, Raising Children and Chickens, and Writing by Elspeth Barker.
My book, Barbara Comyns A Savage Innocence, is published today. Many thanks to Matthew Frost, who commissioned it, and to the great team at MUP, who turned it into a reality!
Out today! Barbara Comyns truly comes alive on the pages of this wonderful biography. From a childhood in a crumbling mansion, via Bohemian London to slumming it in Spain, her life was a wild ride but very much emblematic of the hidden struggles of women in the 20th c. 1/2
Happy pub day to @avrilhorner1, whose biography of Barbara Comyns is out today from @ManchesterUP. It’s the eye-opening story of a writer whose life was every bit as adventurous & unconventional as anything she wrote about in her strange, surreal, brilliant & original novels.
Delighted that ‘A Different Sound’ has joined the Pushkin Classics! The beautiful paperback edition is out today!

We had so much fun discussing Angela Milne’s wonderful One Year’s Time with @stuck_inabook: lostladiesoflit.com/podcast/181-an…
Delighted to be interviewed in a juicy, print-only article about “making sense of book events,” in the new issue of @poetswritersinc! They are very difficult to do well and absolutely one of my passions. Pick up the magazine for more.
The Lost Ladies of Lit podcast has long been one of my favorites, so it was amazing to be interviewed on the show about Carolyn lostladiesoflit.com/podcast/179-ca…
@kaskew @rrb_writer Wrote my most recent @SatEvePost column on Wells & Rebecca's book! saturdayeveningpost.com/2024/01/consid…
A pioneer of the detective/mystery genre who began writing locked-room mystery novels a decade before Agatha Christie, Carolyn Wells counted Theodore Roosevelt, Thomas Edison & Mark Twain among her friends and fans. Guest @rrb_writer joins us: lostladiesoflit.com/transcripts/17…
While the new episode of @kaskew’s Lost Ladies of Lit features @sptavera87 on Zelda Fitzgerald’s novel Save Me the Waltz: lostladiesoflit.com/podcast/177-ze…
The episode has dropped! Come hear about Zelda, then go read Save Me the Waltz. 😉

Very taken with @wnbooks’ new ed. of Patricia Highsmith’s New York diaries & notebooks, though I think she’d snub the Crodino in favour of something stronger… In Feb 1944 she writes that alcohol helps one “see the truth, the simplicity, and the primitive emotions once more.”
