Devastated to learn about the recent passing of Graham Rawle. As a person, he was as brilliant, witty and kind as his work. So sad. Graham Rawle obituary theguardian.com/artanddesign/2…

Really enjoyed hearing RICHARD AYOADE talking about The Unfinished Harauld Hughes at Off the Shelf Festival of Words this evening. He described it as a mockumentary but I’m wondering if (& hoping) it can be classed as autofiction. Leaving with a signed copy so I’m looking forward to finding out!

I keep saying this but can we please have season 4?! I know Covid caused a lot of disruption, but things are different again and we need to know how it ends!

Found this abandoned playing card on my driveway & thought of Graham Rawle. After reading The Card, I’d email Graham when I found cards (apparently other people did too) & he’d respond with a witty reply about what it meant! Such a lovely man and talented creative. Still missed.
