Venturing into screenwriting with Outpost 9, which doesn’t exactly tick the first project boxes (Low budget? Nope. Easily defined genre? Also nope). 😁

Elf-struck, means to have taken ill having been shot by an elven arrow. In lore, elves got the arrows from faeries, who got them from mermaids

A photo of a wooden ‘kuska’ full of coffee. There is a thick swirl steam coming from it and it looks beautiful.

London whispers secrets in every corner, and with each page I turn, I feel its pulse. Books transport me, weaving tales of wonder and mystery. Let's get lost in the magic together! ✨ #BookSky 💙📚 #Books

Apologies, this is more TikTok than BlueSky! But I’m so chuffed to have crossed the 25,000 milestone on book 3 after weeks - nay, months - of word drought!

A quote about a dystopian tale set in Victorian England appears over a beach scene. Five stars and "Reader Review" are at the bottom. A serene beach scene with grassy dunes and calm sea. Text reads a review praising vivid imagery. Five yellow stars are shown, labeled "Reader Review."

Quite possibly what the internet never needed- bad jazz improv in Gm on a ukulele. Trying matters though, right?? 😬

I don’t really do poetry (through lack of skill rather than desire) but the roundabouts made me so furious I wrote this one.

It’s called ‘Crossing’

It’s for all of us who hate hate.

(Alt text provided ❤️)

#HopeNotHate #AntiRacism #NoMoreRacism #OneLove #Poem #PoetrySky #Poetry
CROSSING - a poem Brush red paint onto any white surface. A herd of opinion. Nothing new, novel. Mindset transparent, and anger apparent. Brush red paint onto any white surface. Negotiate never. Mask all empathy. Stiffening sinews, this hatred contagious. Brush red paint onto any white surface. The gammon machine with its flag flaunted face. Swastika squaddie, the fascist’s dogsbody. Brush red paint onto any white surface. In a world parallel, this herd weeps unheard. Their boats blood and bodies, lining long distant shores.

Taken myself away for a couple of days on the Lancaster Canal. I’m very lucky with the weather ☀️ I almost want it to rain to quash my urge to stay here forever!

Picture of me, a white woman in her forties wearing a blue t-shirt and a brown cap. I am at the helm of a boat, on a canal on a sunny day A view over the Lune Viaduct with forested river banks in the background and sun shining through the stone parapets. My boat ‘Strawberry Fields’ moored on the canal. It is dusk and there are warm yellow fairy lights decorating the deck

I’m not endorsing taping animals to walls. But… I do love this new review of ‘Future’s End’! Thank you! ❤️

Cute dog (not attached to any masonry) and posh brew (not easily achievable with a kettle) pics included.

A greyscale photo of a windswept beach with the text ‘I loved the first book so much and the second book absolutely doesn't disappoint... ...every now and again, something comes along that encourages you to put the kettle on, gaffer-tape the dog to the wall, and absorb yourself in a great story.’ Under the text are five yellow stars and an icon of an eye. A golden spaniel peeking his head above a pub table. His eyes are big and rather sad looking (he isn’t sad, he just knows how to work the room!) A coffee on a wooden tabletop decorated with latte art in the shape of a swan.

A bookcase holding several books, one of the books is facing outwards and is titled ‘The Incredible Machines of Thinkery: Future’s End’. It has a dark green cover and a large, white, singular eye.
