I was asked to write an op-ed piece for The Bookseller about the Read Regional scheme How I Learned to Sing was selected for. You can read it online here : http://www.thebookseller.com/blogs/reading-regionally.html.
In it I talk about the positive use of public funds, New Writing North's track record of great ideas, and the virtues of libraries as democratic spaces and signs of community health. Hopefully any librarians reading it will feel obliged/encouraged to make sure I have audiences when I turn up at their venues over the next few months. (Tour dates here.)
