I’m going to be off Twitter after today.
I will keep this account live so that I can still be DM’d if you need something and can't reach me any other way, but won’t be using it otherwise.

Thank you for the lovely tweets, calls & messages about this. And thank you to the great @wwborders for the honor. But mostly, thank you to those many friends with whom I've collaborated on these things, all of whose work enabled all of mine. Very proud of what we've done so far.

Spelling of "honor" is in deference to @wwborders house style.
(Also my original tweet was one character too long.)

I don't know why I wrote "so far", though. Surely now is when I get to retire? It would mean I couldn't then get the 2033 prize @mervatim promised me, but you can't have everything.

Hope to see many of you somewhere three-dimensional before too long. Currently making many travel plans (all over the U.K. in June, and beyond - Paris, Greece, etc. - as soon thereafter as seems responsible), in order to do just that. Keep well meantime.

As bookshops opened today, this feels like a good time to mention that earlier this year Notes on Jackson and His Dead became available in Ireland. It's been a while, but I'm happy to be able to say that it can now be bought in bookshops throughout the country! @Dalkey_Archive

MEDUSA’S ANKLES: SELECTED STORIES by AS Byatt arrives in Seoul! And it has a bookmark ribbon. And it contains “Racine and the Tablecloth,” which is a religious text for me as it describes the Ideal Reader, the closest thing I have to a religion ☀️ @jenjenarnold
