Had a fantastic day teaching two sold out classes in The Beau Book Nook today for writers just starting their creative writing journey. Do you remember your first steps?

You know the #Llanfairfechan Library Scribblers were in the mood for some serious creating by the amount of snacks on the table. #writers

Magpie in the snow. Actually, magpie (and friends) eating sunflower seed hearts, peanuts, meal worms, suet pellets, and other seeds off the bird wall. It's tough for feathered friends to find food in the deep snow so help out if you can.

Snow in the moonlight. Taking a moment to slow down and look around.

Due to an AI chat bot being employed by The Queens Hotel in Chester, I officially don't have a restaurant reservation. Now I'm running feral in Chester and I believe my earlier research subject Cierce will approve.
Fyi- Grosvenor Museum did not disappoint. #witches The Spectre is brilliant.

Met a wonderful artist named Kristine today at Fron Goch, Caernarfon. She grows her own flowers and transforms them into beautiful dried flower wreaths, scented wax melts, and other gorgeous things. My photo does not do this arrangement justice. #fairycore #NorthWales

Ageing is so interesting. Today my hairdresser added a boost of brown to my red dye because my white hair might turn pink. Then all of a sudden I was like, go ahead, I'm not afraid of pink.

How to make an author's heart happy? Dress as one of the characters from her book on Halloween!
My cousin dressed as Phoebe from my book Samhain Awakening and I couldn't be more excited 😆!

Pumpkins complete! Glowing from the conservatory. Seeds separated and ready for baking. Salt, pepper, and chili this year.
Go on. Show me your pumpkins.

Sometimes the only thing that really sparks my creativity is a stroll through the forest photographing whatever catches my eye...most of the time, it's mushrooms.

Very pleased to announce that my talk tomorrow at Llandudno Museum is officially sold out! I'm so grateful for people who decided to buy tickets, share my advertising, and support me and this event.
Looking forward to taking my audience through the barriers from seance to science! #spooky #museum

Brilliant, thoughtful, and deeply unsettling.

Aug 1st 2023, I launched my 1st novel, Yule Moon, at The Rock Shop in Paducah, KY, USA and at Y Segontiwm, Caernarfon, UK. Today I sold my last author copy of Beltane Ash(Book 3) at the Anglesey Writing Festival. All that's left of my original launch swag are 19 postcards. What shall I do with them?

Swt doing his best to keep me from working too hard. This method is called a snoozel handcuff. You can't move or you'll wake the cat!

I was looking for my website (because it is in desperate need of an update before my next book comes out) when Co-pilot decided to jump on and tell me about myself. I'm not sure whether I am flattered or disturbed.🤣
