600 write-ups

I've just posted my 600th write-up on my LitRefs Reviews blog. As I explain in a rationale, they're not usually reviews as such. Some of them - e.g. The Atmospheric Railway - are only a sentence or two. Others - e.g. The Best British Poetry 2011 - go on for ages. The top 5 most popular entries are (for differing reasons, I suspect)

• Birth of the Owl Butterflies
• School of Forgery
• Stuart: A life backwards
• The Forward book of poetry, 2013
• How to live safely in a science fictional universe

Some photos from work

I'm wondering how to use this notice from a cardboard box. Stick it secretly on a poet's back?

A door that's a few metres from my office. I think I get the message.

Another notice from my workplace.

My current office.

2 labs that I've never visited.
