As predicted, the front pages of BBC & CNN are full of Israel-Iran.
Nothing on Gaza or West Bank. Remember that all comms are cut in Gaza as they starve.
Exactly what Netanyahu wanted.
They can do anything they like now as the vapid MSM chase the new squirrel released for their distraction.

Taking a hiatus from writing for a few weeks. Currently prepping for a small low/fi animation. Will be using a mixture of techniques - puppets, stop motion, Timelapse and collage. Maybe more. Let’s see what the next few weeks of creativity brings

Witnesses say Israeli forces opened fire on people near distribution point run by Israel-backed foundation
More than 20 people were killed on Sunday as they went to receive food at an aid distribution point set up by an Israeli-backed foundation in the Gaza Strip, according to a hospital run by the Red Cross that received the bodies.
Witnesses told the Associated Press that Israeli forces had opened fire on people as they headed toward the aid distribution site run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF). “There were many martyrs, including women,” the 40-year-old resident said. “We were about 300 metres away from the military.” Continue reading...

Hey #writingcommunity any tips for battling through (hopefully) a final edit? The bones on my MS have always been solid, it’s the line by line edit that’s been a challenge, and I’ve been polishing away to a high shine. But it’s so slow & keeping momentum is tricky. Any tips you could share?

Finally finished reading the epic WINNERS by Fredrik Backman - a powerful bittersweet take about loyalty, grief and the cost of holding a community together. I loved the wide cast, nuanced characters and the third-person POVs which mixed Omni narrator with close third.

Just finished Party Lines by Ed Gillett- a brilliant dive into the roots of the British club scene. From blues dances to illegal raves, it shows how uk dance music was made political. Gillet is a master wordsmith and the scenes vivid.

Birds feature a lot in my art and the Wetlands in Barnes (London) is such a special place. I always discover new facts and get to listen to the most beautiful bird songs (shame about the airplanes)

Revisited an old favourite - ‘In the mood for love’ is a meditation in subtext. In their restrained interactions, the emotional intensity is volcanic beneath the surface. Every glance, silence and frame composition carries emotional weight. It’s all yearning in whispers and missed connections. ❤️❤️

Hi #WritingCommmunity I have a technical question - in a novel if a character remembers something someone once told them, do you put that dialogue in speech marks? Or italics. Atm mine are in italics but I’m questioning if that’s correct. Thanks #writingtips #writing

In my WiP my main character is a complicated mess of a human. For years he forged an existence as a social illusionist but life wore him down & his socialite qualities withered away from neglect. #writingcommunity

This is a brilliantly written blog for those unsure which category their current WiP falls in to. I always felt that mine sat somewhere between literary and book club…. 😀 now I feel equipped to justify my claim when querying. @darlingaxe.com

What the Heck is the Difference Between Literary, Upmarket, and Book Club Fiction?
Understanding industry genres isn't just about fitting into a box; it's about connecting with readers who are looking for books just like yours.

There are many clever software and apps out there out marketed as creative tools, but they are AI. And you are training them.

Sat on a sofa at the weekend that was the depiction of a throne of indulgence. Silk sapphire brocade with gold thread work that caught the light like scattered sunflakes. I’m obsessed. The sofa creep in to my artwork somewhere. I’m convinced of it
