Doors closed 15 minutes ago. As we do every evening, we've turned all the books upside down so the words don't fall out overnight. It may seem like a silly waste of time, but ask yourself this; when did you last see piles of words on a Waterstones carpet? That's right - NEVER.

The Keepsake for 1839, p. 201. Mary Shelley calls upon her lost husband's ghost to re-visit her in dreams, swearing she won't imitate Psyche's rashness as told in Apuleius's Metamorphoses.

‘And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer.’

Maxim: Inside every fat woman, is a thin woman trying to get out.
Style: Metaphysical? We keep, when looking at most, if not all, of the poems in #femininegospels coming across conventions of the Metaphysicals. #thediet is no different.
Worth a little look out for from 6-7pm, Y13! I'm excited to catch up on #femininegospelsfest teapawt.net/FeminineGospels/status…
Would like to thank @SoundMiss and @Ks5Co for clearing their diaries at short notice to do a #femininegospelsfest slot for me. 18:00 - 19:00 they'll be taking questions and ideas on: 1/2
Final notice for Y13 #EnglishLiterature students: I know that there are a fair few exams tomorrow so I might not see you all. I'll be in our usual classrooms for anybody who is available & wants to have a look at #FeminineGospels Don't forget Miss C's after school revision too!
