🎩 Zadie Smith pens a riveting piece about how not to write like Dickens while simultaneously name-dropping him like he's the last remaining crumb of Victorian toast. 🍞 The article is a #masterclass in saying "no Dickens" while being as #Dickensian as humanly possible—Bravo, truly. 👏

As we have still yet to reach Twelfth Night, I’m still sporting a seasonally appropriate #pinbadge on my old #tweed sport coat each day. Today’s is the just arrived new #Crow #Scrooge badge from Bush Bling. It well suits both the season and the #Dickensian reading I’ve been doing as of late.
