#travel #nature Also while we were in Bournemouth, we came across this little fellow. A common or a wall lizard (I don't know; there's only a few #lizard species that live in the #UK, and they all look much the same to me). He soon disappeared into the foliage.

#cockatiel #birb #birds #pets #travel #nevis #bournemouth I was nostalgic for my childhood visits to the beach. Then I remembered that I'm an adult now; if I want to go the beach, I can just go. I don't need my mom's permission.

#cockatiel #birb #birds #pets #travel #nevis What it's really like taking photos with Nevis. Often if I hold up something he needs to check it out.

#cockatiel #birb #birds #pets #travel #nevis #highwycombe Apparently there is also a High Wycombe in Australia. This isn't that one. This is us walking from High Wycombe in England to nearby #Beaconsfield, where #terrypratchett lived most of his life.

#cockatiel #birb #birds #pets #travel #nevis A quick visit to #Winchester, the once sort-of capital of the kingdom of Wessex and of King Alfred the Great, who famously didn't defeat the Vikings.

Sometimes I see AI generated shorts in youtube and just think 'really? You sacrificed a rain forest for that...'

#cockatiel #birb #birds #pets #travel #nevis Nevis beeping at me while out for a walk. Never sure exactly what sets him off; maybe he just thought it was too quiet.

#nevis and I visiting #Stonehenge, near #Salisbury. Which was, um... yeah. Some pretty big stones. I guess. #cockatiel #birb #birds #pets #travel

Anyway as I'm waiting for a bunch of new stuff to render, I figured I might talk about some of the things that have influenced me and my writing growing up.

#nevis and I in #Oxford, where my niece is going to university. Great for her, obviously. Unsettling for me that I have a niece now old enough to be attending Oxford. #cockatiel #birb #birds #pets #travel

books2read.com/u/meDojR A few short stories set after Irongate. Available for free, except for some stores that don't allow less than 99 cents. #books #scifi #sciencefiction #shortstories #adventure #thriller #psychological

#cockatiel #birb #birds #pets #travel #nevis #london Nevis in London! Photos are often edited in the sense that I will snap a picture with Nevis in front of me, and one where I've moved him aside, then layered them so he and the background are both in focus.

I'll be posting some art and character profiles for Irongate, roughly in order of appearance. Also a lot of photos of my travels with Nevis to catch up on. Obviously I'll try to space things out and not bombard folks with everything at once.

The biggest, best, dry cleaning. Everyone is saying, clothes haven't been this clean and sweet smelling since George Washington. I've had people come up to me in tears because they couldn't believe how dry we made them... I don't really know what dry cleaners do...

Taking Nevis around Woking and Horsell Common, where of course the Martians landed in HG Wells' The War of the Worlds. #cockatiel #birb #birds #pets #travel #nevis #hgwells #thewaroftheworlds #woking

My #cockatiel, Nevis, being taken on a walk around Steventon last year - the village where Jane Austen was born. Last year was her 250th birthday (Jane Austen's; not the bird's). #janeausten #birb #birds #pets #travel #nevis
