I’m an old woke pagan Crone, a lover of archaeology, cats, dogs, horses, otters, & zero patience with far right bigotry, lies and hypocrisy. I'm also an author of m/m fiction. https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/Chris-Quinton/author/B004G0SL5Q

My first post, and of course my mind is a blank slate. Here’s a quick introduction: I live with my extended family, that includes 3 dogs. A few times a year I get my feline fix by cat- and house-sitting for my friends in various parts of the UK. I’m also an author of mm fiction under another name.

It is a truth universally recognised that no matter how many times an author reads through a draft, they will ALWAYS find a typo, and/or a word/line that needs to be tweaked.

I've been away for a bit, literally and figuratively. Got sidetracked by the insanity on Twitter, but I've decided to do better & not feed Musk & the outright irrational spouting of 'facts' more fanciful than any fiction I and my fellow #authors may write. Back to work on the latest draft of Pye.

Just over 3yrs ago, following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, I started this quilt. When it was finished, it was auctioned off, the proceeds going to a Ukraine charity. The war is still going on, & as I write this, Ukraine is poised to be betrayed by Trump in a shameful deal with Putin. Slava Ukraini.

Petition: Commission a public inquiry into the impact of the UK exiting the European Union
Given that it has stated its aim of growing the UK economy, we think the Government needs to quantify the effects of exiting the European Union as soon as possible by setting up an inquiry.

No second state visit for Trump
Unbelievable. Keir Starmer has handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and should not go ahead.
