Wow. The Hugo Awards are trash. I hadn't heard anything about this, but I follow this author as I'm reading their book at the moment. Jaw hit the floor. How can people like that be
allowed to judge anyone's work? That's truly horrific - both their politically oppressive
stance and their inability to spell the author's name.

Toki Pona
The smallest language in the world... and utterly fascinating. Reminds me a bit of Talc Alf in the way one sign or symbol can represent so many things. Official Toki Pona site.

Farewell Benjamin Zephaniah
Liverpool Baltic Triangle |
So sad to hear of the passing of Benjamin Zephaniah. I grew up with his poetry. I even put his poem According to my Mood on the syllabus with undergrads here in Kigali, to who how much fun you can have with words. Don't Happy, Be Worried never failed to put a smile on my face. A wonderful wordsmith and very much enjoyed seeing him on Peaky Blinders. Thanks for all the poems Dr Zephaniah.
