Ah, @nicolawriting.bsky.social , such a delightful read. Beautifully written, and the exhausting research was well worth the effort. How wonderful to have such a story on your doorstep and be able to bring it, and the lovely characters, to life and make us think about how much we have lost. Bravo!

Look what was waiting for me when I got back from holiday. Can't wait to start reading! @nicolawriting.bsky.social

Everyone needs screaming swifts sometimes. Chateau de Castelnau Bretenoux in the Dordogne, France. Absolutely joyful!

Same here in the New Forest.
