Brilliant day at States of Independence in #DMU today. Everything went better than I'd even hoped. Sold books and prints. Gave a workshop - well received. Fabulous company. Now utterly exhausted.

A little reminder of my short story collection In Their Absence:
A powerful dissection of what it means to go missing, exploring the human complexities behind the headlines & statistics to reveal unsettling truths about what it is to live in the shadow of absence.

Alice in Moominland
Tove Jansson’s illustrations for a rare 1966 edition of “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” are melancholy, complex and occasionally scary.

Yesterday, I enjoyed some time with my students at the DMU archives. If you’re interested in the catalogue you can find it here. It’s well worth a gander… My nerdy self was drawn to the early spaceflight items and micro-computing objects from the 1970s/80s.

Apologies for self-promotion but I’m doing a reading at 2pm next Thursday afternoon (National Poetry Day). It’s for Nottingham Poetry Society, which is a good organisation, and audience members would be very welcome. There will be an open mic too. Cost for non-members is £4 and it’s in a pub.

My lovely boyfriend gave me the whole Dune collection for Xmas. Here’s the opening of the saga…
‘In the week before their departure to Arrakis, when all the final scurrying about had reached a nearly unbearable frenzy, an old crone came to visit the mother of the boy, Paul.’
