Writer of flash fiction and short stories. Working on second novel (and looking for a home for first). Writers’ HQ Edinburgh rep.
Dreich weather in Edinburgh is not stopping these amazing writers at today’s @writershq.bsky.social Retreat from getting the words down. There’s also plenty of caffeine and snacks to keep them going until 4pm.

The Edinburgh @writershq.bsky.social Retreat is in full swing with an amazing bunch of writers! Loving the soothing tap-tap-tap sound of fingers on keyboards.

Wonderful bunch of writers at today’s Edinburgh @writershq.bsky.social Retreat. It’s gone very quiet except for the soothing tap-tap-tap sound as everyone is busy working on their projects.

Is that in Room 237? I need to rewatch it. I can’t remember if there were two typewriters at the exhibition. I need to check my other pictures 😃
