Just finished #LancashireFolktales @storywheel.bsky.social . Definitely tales for #winter evenings and I found a new story about my own local town - Icy Fingers 🥶. So lovely to hear Jacqueline and #MarjanWouda talking @litfest.bsky.social last weekend about how they created the book.

Fascinating listening to Helen Bate and @mollieray.bsky.social in conversation with @jakehope.bsky.social about telling #stories through #graphic #novels and the power of #illustration and #comics to connect and tell those difficult stories we need to hear .

Last night I watched @georgemcgavin.bsky.social documentary on the #oak #tree and it was absolutely fascinating. I didn’t know there were so many different types of gall wasps and today I found a knopper gall. I am planting 1,950 trees this autumn on a field but I lucky to already have an old oak !
