all my writing in 2025 💿

every other sunday, I post a review on thewhitepube.com; every other sunday, Zarina does. Here’s all the things I wrote about in 2025, which definitely didn’t end up being every other sunday due very poor health at the start of the year, and then a summer spent writing a book with Z that should be out winter ‘26 with Particular Books/Penguin Random House. Stay tuned : )

The subjects also follow my health, beginning with books, and then moving into live events as the year progresses:

1. Woman on the Edge of Time by Marge Piercy
2. London Art Fair
3. Mary and the Rabbit Dream by Noémi Kiss-Deáki
4. The Hearing Test by Eliza Barry Callahan
5. Lapvona by Ottessa Moshfegh
6. Creating Identity Charms
7. Monkey King by Wu Cheng’en
8. Radio 1’s Big Weekend
9. Death Stranding 2
10. LCD Soundsystem @ Brixton Academy
11. Ethel Cain
12. Liverpool Biennial 2025
13. John Moores Painting Prize 2025
14. Outernet
15. Katabasis by R.F. Kuang
16. Low Roar

I’m happy with my writing but I realised towards the end of the year how much I miss quick texts. 1000 words, 1500. I’m going to carry on with that in 2026. It’s also a bit practical. I need to focus on other work (spent the last 2 weeks on a funding application for example). Grateful to have our audience on the website and Discord so that this reading lands somewhere. Grateful to have writing be the centre of my world 🤝
