A catch-up on my nature diary. Feels odd to be typing August in November but good to revisit what you were thinking and feeling at the time. In this aritcle I also quote from Pamela Gormally's wonderful collection, which she was kind enough to give me as a gift.

And it is. Jane's Substack has contributed to my own growth. I've not read anybody else's work for months now, but I will read this one and urge you to do the same.

Jane made me realise that how I write matters more than trying to emulate anybody else.

Thank you <3
I am having a small personal celebration - 19 months of dedicated work has led me to my 100th Substack article - it feels like an achievement to me :-)

I was asked by @candlestickpress.bsky.social
if I would like to do the cover for their 'Almanac: Twelve Poems for 2026' I picked up a paintbrush and paper and the flowers kept on coming, coming, coming. Available here: www.candlestickpress.co.uk/pamphlet/alm...

Another portion of my diary typed up, with illustrations. Have finished one notebook and moved onto a new one, which is a very interesting one.
