Thanks to @rachelburch.bsky.social for another beautiful calendar featuring her landscape photos of #Dartmoor. I think they have sold out (She raised £300 for the local food bank from them🙏👍👍) but her fab cards, prints, bookmarks and books can be bought on Etsy www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Theg...

I wanted to say that one of my favourite short story collections of all time is The Weather in Kansas by @shoebillmansion.bsky.social I discovered it via Twitter - such an inventive, rich and absorbing collection I return to. Magical realism with a flickering of the uncanny.
