- As winter does its worst, why not take shelter at Hearth, a micro-literary festival at Gladstone's Library in Wales next month.
- Jewish Book Week in London later in February will be playing host to many big names, among them Judith Kerr, Tracy Chevalier, Victoria Glendinning, and Howard Jacobson.
- If you're a writer yourself and short fiction is your thing, you may be interested in the Mogford Food and Drink Short Story Prize or the Writers' and Artists' Yearbook Short Story Competition; deadlines for both are approaching but there's still plenty of time to enter.
- Lastly today, a poem I came across recently (which is right up my street).
I saw this poem on Kate Davies' site too, and immediately copied it out to add to my diary in December as a reminder of what a wet month it was.
