Good morning! Today, I'm welcoming a new batch of students onto my blogging course with @Cambridge_ICE @litandcw_ice - such a lovely moment. If you're interested in learning more about writing online, it's not too late to join us! (link in reply)
I also have a forthcoming course with them on children's literature in the 20th century - ice.cam.ac.uk/course/british… - which I am delighted to teach and love every minute of. If you're interested in either course, questions are welcome!
