🚨 I’d really love to take on some more authors in 2024! 🚨

I’ve just updated my agent page which you can view here blakefriedmann.co.uk/sianellis-mart… but here’s a quick thread on my tastes and what I’m looking for in fiction and non-fiction. 🧵👇

It’s giving Philip Larkin

he's sow pretty

Finished this melancholic, marvellous book of characters, viewed with such clarity before Rose expands their humanity and shrinks your preconceptions. It's soft as butter, sharp as a razor, word perfect - every line sings or sears. Rose Ruane is ridiculously clever. #Birding .

The Cat Behind The Star #1 in an occasional series. Hollywood, 1956. Coffee the Siamese & human Elizabeth Taylor

Buy my book, darlings xx

Neoliberalist politicos + media blame individuals not systemic structural socio-economic inequalities that cause poor health, and always quantify with a finincial figure.

Death cult capitalism is killing people and driving us collectively insane. We should ALL be off sick.

Adam Ritchie ~ Psychedelic light show at the UFO Club London, December 1966.

Sunset Books: Family Rooms, Dens & Studios (1979)

Powerful piece from Daisy Lafarge in today's Observer New Review about being diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome at 31, and finding the strength to think and write while dealing with chronic pain

Brilliant hearing Rose Ruane reading at her launch in Bristol. Heron Books

Away for a few days. Packing possibly slightly ambitious. Especially given that the sun is out and I'm also working on book 3!

Reading this on the train to that London and I cannot even wait until the end to wax lyrical about the turns of phrase, the barbed observations, the way it makes me goosebump and gasp in recognition. Rose Ruane you are truly brilliant. More to come... #Birding

Nothing says ‘modernised disability benefit system’ like someone with MS going cold, hungry & rationing their incontinence pads.

Successive governments have stripped away the bare minimum of support, opting instead for demonisation & contempt.

This kind of nostalgia may seem innocent but the critique of the modern as degenerate has a rich history in far-right extremism and white supremacy which includes but is certainly not limited to the Nazi idea of literally degenerate art.

I think the timeline has seen enough pictures of me in green dresses holding up my green book lately. Thank you for your patience💚
