Just finished the first full draft of my latest metafictional horror novel. I’d say it’s a doozy but then I’d be biased of course. Lots of polishing ahead. #horror #horrorcommunity #horrorwriters #writingcommunity #neilbailey #author

Just ordered this. I’ve heard good things. I’m hoping it helps me understand me a bit better. #AutismAwareness

Big day of volunteering. Huge willow fell across the fence. So two of us spent the day clearing, and all with hand tools. Now officially shattered. Good day though. Before and after shots. #volunteer #conservation

New #wip started today. Along with all my others…ahem. 2000 words done already. Feels like it will develop in to something really unsettling. And yes that’s a good thing. #author #writingcommunity #HorrorCommunity

First go solo after today’s workshop. Got the first row a bit tight but enjoying the triple stitch and first attempt at changing colour. It’s going to be a very wide and likely random scarf. lol. #crochet #beginner #alwayslearning

Great short beginners workshop. My little patch with single, double and treble stitches. Good fun. Tiring though.

Another bag of rubbish collected on today’s run. Sometimes it feels relentless trying to make a difference. On others like today running in the crisp sunshine it felt like a good job done. #makeadifference #adropintheocean

A little pre-Christmas treat. Absolutely loving this puzzle book. Any excuse to look at OS Maps.

This is my other #wip With my #autistic brain I’m flitting between two novels. 10k words on one and 4.5k on the other. Probably not efficient or normal but it’s working for me so far. #writingcommunity #writercommunity #horror #thriller
