Narrowminded editorial policy.
Hi Readers
I will be pleasantly surprised if the editors will allow this email that I wrote to them to be published, but I honestly feel that this heavy handed censorship is wrong in not allowing me, and many similar, to publicise our events on London Drum.
'You are happy to advertise the Dickens Museum walks, though the Museum is closed until Christmas (very controversially). The talks I do are of at least equal quality -(and for the record I have been on various TV and radio programmes) so I feel that you are rejecting a whole aspect of what's on in London, therefore a disservice to the community you claim to be friendly towards- the well known people you favour (and savour) are unknown to the visitor market (no disrespect intended), but people come to this country solely to learn more about Charles Dickens. The pic enclosed is me sitting in Dickens chair at his desk, writing with his pen, where he wrote at least part of Nicolas Nicleby. Anyway, good luck, but I think your policy is very shallow- or more accurately, humbug'!
