The widow of murdered Belfast solicitor Pat Finucane has hailed the first day of a long-campaigned for public inquiry into his death as "monumental".
Happens all too often in literary spaces, too, unsurprisingly. "Happy Pride! Read Le Guin and Riordan and--" I am literally right here, alive and making very little money off of my work.
