When I submitted to #RevPit last year, I was curious about what happened to the previous year’s winners. In the comments below, a few folks from the 2025 cohort have reflected on their experience! We'd love to hear stories from others as well!

A small girl wearing a rabbit costume and blue coat carries a book as she walks to school. Her mother (head out of shot) wheels her baby brother along in a pushchair. The baby says "Peter Rabbit may be the 'Hero' of the story, but surely the obedient, widowed Mrs Rabbit is a more effective symbol of the oppression inherent within Mister McGregor's regime" The girls looks furious and snaps "Mum!! He's critiquing my world book day costume from a marxist perspective again!"

Respect. That’s the kind of external motivation I would need to write a book, too.

Disputed Inheritance A root-and-branch rethinking of how history has shaped the science of genetics. In 1900, almost no one had heard of Gregor Mendel. Ten years later, he was famous as the father of a new science of here...

For context, this is Greg's recent book on how early 20th-century English disputes in biological sciences settled on the centrality of Mendelian determinism rather than environmental flexibility within a broader atmosphere of "genetics is destiny" thinking: press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/bo...

I hope the students at Leeds realise how lucky they are to have this course, and to have Greg teach it. This dovetails nicely with my article arguing for putting the complexities upfront in biology, and shows that it can be done. (And teaching the history & context!)

I LOVE these! Gotta read these again soon (along with the Crystal Cave which I was also reminded of tonight)

Oh oh oh, same! I first read this around that age, too. I read it in the car on a family trip through the Rockies, and I know Wales isn’t the same, but I was thoroughly immersed. The last time I read it, it was better than I remembered

Hey pals,

It is the LAST WEEK to donate to the Little Ghosts workshop fundraiser to help us build out our space to host even more marketplaces, workshops, and reading events for our community. If 300 people got a commemorative wall plaque, we would reach our goal!

Thanks so much for the support!🤍

Applied for the #RevPit BIPOC Mentorship this year. Thanks for creating this opportunity! And good luck to all the other hopeful mentees!

Going to follow the contest again this year whether I get picked or not. Go go, all you brilliant writers!
