Now listen up. Words to live by in 2025 (and beyond). Be the light.
#3goodthings
1. Nollaig na mBan. Feet up, wimmin.
2. Driftwood Christmas tree, just before it's consigned to the attic for another year.
3. Daffs poking through, guarded by gonks.

One month of sleeps. Love when a new one finds its way onto the bookshop shelves. 🙂🙂🙂
So here we go, my 23rd offering, publishing in Ireland and online on Feb 5, all going well. The story of yoga teacher Lydia during the most tumultuous year of her life - I hope it finds favour with my cherished readers. 🙂🙂

#3goodthings
1. An addition to the kitchen wall, an effort to improve my deplorable geography. Now when a place is mentioned in the news, I can locate it.
2. A pre-dinner toddy. In my defence, tis Baltic in West Clare.
3. Scrambled duck eggs on toast for dinner. That'll do.

#3goodthings
1. Jack Frost in mother's garden. Always think he makes every place serene.
2. Fuchsia blooming in Jan. World gone mad (but pretty).
3. First bread of 2026. Who's for a slice?

Meant to resume #3goodthings on Jan 1, but a family health scare has knocked the normal routine sideways, so we await tests and results, and remain hopeful that the news will be positive. In the meantime:
1. A tasty glass.
2. Easons selling the latest.
3. The joy of sox.

Ah. ❤️
Happy new year. I’m spending New Year’s Day reading one of your wonderful books. Thanks for writing them.

Happy New Year to all. Really hoping that peace will come to everywhere it's needed in 2026.

Now listen up: words to live by in 2026 (and beyond). Be what the sad world needs.

"So many gods, so many creeds
So many paths that wind and wind,
While just the art of being kind
Is all the sad world needs."

My favourite Christmas 2025 gift.

Why yes, I am easily pleased.

Assuming everyone survived yesterday, happy new year. Totally inappropriate breakfasts are mandatory on St Stephen's Day, right?

Happy Christmas to all. May your turkey be tender and your battery supply endless.

Ah no, Chris Rea is gone. Never driving home for Christmas again. RIP Chris, thanks for the music.

Sincere thanks to everyone who supported my Irish Book Awards nomination ...honestly, I'm not disappointed that I didn't win - I had a great night, and there's always next year, and your kindness, as ever, is truly appreciated. ❤️ #APIBA2025

On the way to the Book Awards, first stop on the way to full-on glamour. Wait till I get into my charity shop dress. Watch this space. #APIBA

An absolute pleasure to finally meet up with Felicity and her lovely Wilf, huge thanks to Sally and Lily of Banner Books for hosting, and to all who showed up. We'll be back!
Okay, I lied about the grand piano, but it was some night.

Massive thanks to Sally of Banner Books, Ennistymon, to Lily, and all who came.

And love and thanks to @roisinm.bsky.social x
