Why subscribe?
These Class Notes started life as a way of sharing further reading with my students, but when I opened the door there turned out to be a lot of you all standing out in the hallway. Come in, come in, let’s talk about writing and reading and what we all know or don’t know. Lots of question marks, lots of uncertainty, lots to read and think about.
You, at the back?
Questions are always welcome, either by replying to the email or using the Substack Notes feature that no-one’s quite got the hang of. I might use your question (anonymously) in a future Class Note; I might respond to you directly; I might not manage to reply at all. But your question is definitely welcome.

I write novels (4th Estate/Catapult), short stories (various), and other bits and pieces. I also teach writing at the University of Nottingham.
