Like this ghost candle, some things last longer than they should.
Like a chest infection. Going on week 5 now but I am starting to feel better.
So admire this candle cos there are worst things that last longer than they should.
(I miss writing, can you tell? 😄)

It has been a nice day so far which has been made much brighter with a poetry acceptance. @ravensquothpress.bsky.social have kindly sent me an acceptance for the Psythur 3 anthology. I was included in the first Psythur so it's nice to be included again with 'The Bouquet is Tossed'. #poetrycommunity

The past week has been chaotic and this piece of news nearly slipped under the radar. @gravesidepress.bsky.social has published Gathered Here Today and it includes my poem 'See Here'. I can't wait to have a read and from the sample page on Amazon, it looks exciting! 🙂

Today is the last day of the Kirkstall Art Trail and I wish to say thank you to @kirkstallarttrail for including my poem on the poetry trail. I managed to find it, though it was very well hidden on the entrance to the museum garden, away from other poetry haha

I love 🖤 how these business cards have turned out. With curved edges and recycled paper, I can now hand these out when at events. I could've used them today but better late than never 😄

I think the heat has scrambled my brain. Why else would I forget to let you know that my drabble 'Payment Plan' was published on this week's Trembling with Fear @horrortree.com?
