Took a break from writing today to check out the Thames Path in London to see how work is progressing in Battersea and after the Tideway work in Vauxhall. #ThamesPath The last no-go area in Battersea (last photo)

Out of London for a bit. In Cornwall for a family get together. I've even found time to do some writing and a jigsaw!

This week’s Sunday Snippet brings you Poorly Mended Fingers by T.E. Bean ( @tebean.bsky.social )

In this quietly powerful poem, T.E. Bean explores masculinity, vulnerability, and the strength found not in clenched fists, but in open hands.

Read it now in Issue 4.
