Sorry for being bleak.

Ideally, I’d just post about writing, Scots, and things like that, but the world right now is grim and heavy. 😔

Technology has completely ruined human connection. It’s in the process of ruining our ability to think too.

As for depravity? The Epstein files are proof that it enables people to sink to new levels of evil.

The amount of times I inwardly cringed when people called it a ‘butty’ to me in England – or referred to diluting juice as ‘squash’!

It’s almost half one in the morning, and I just decided on the life lesson that I want to share in my third children’s book!

It’s funny how writing ideas can seemingly come from nowhere – or in this case, memories almost forgotten.

I really hope that I’m wrong, but I’ve a horrible feeling that Donald Trump will pardon Ghislaine Maxwell.

I’m but surely getting there with ‘Cathy, get yer Dancin Shoes Oan’. It’s mad to think that I began this book in 2016, but I know now why it had to take a decade to exist.

I think the universe knows I risked it for a biscuit with the books, so I have been rewarded with a BRAW view of Edinburgh Castle. 😍
