Cheese. Cheese is protein. Ergo, cheese is health food.

Sheltered cove on Russell Island off Vancouver, which is indeed uninhabited. There were no caves here, sadly, but I'm pretty sure we could have found some a bit further around the coast. Shot is of a rocky outcrop overhung with trees and bushes, on a beach strewn artistically with driftwood. You can just make out a somewhat blue sea in the background, though in reality it was a lot bluer.

This is just one of the rather gorgeous places I spent my weekend.

If this doesn't scream "children's adventure story about running away to an uninhabited island to live in a cave," to you, you had a deprived childhood.

Blood Count — F.K. Marlowe Writes Vincent likes taking blood. But he’s about to meet someone who likes it even more. His fingers are steady and sure as he tightens the strap, inserts the needle, checks the blood’s flowing nice and...

Finally back in the saddle with the free monthly micro-reads! Phew!

Get your summer shiver on with this cheesy vamp-fest horror read

Flash fiction horror is always free on the website. And eventually I get around to doing an audio version too.

Why is it I can remember all the words to theme tunes from shows I saw as a kid, but something useful to remember - forget it!

Hmm, good question. I think I just chopped onions and the radishes and fried them a bit before I dumped in a couple of chopped potatoes, some veggie stock, and after pureeing, 2 cups of milk. Oh - salt and black pepper too! Oh yes, and I had two yellow courgettes wilting so I added them!

Honestly, I would buy shares, cos frankly who wouldn't like to travel back to a time that was less "interesting"?!

(2025? No thanks, I'll take my chances with the Black Death...)

It was surprisingly good - so good, in fact, that Eldest, who is the pickiest of eaters, heated up the leftovers for her lunch the day after! Who'd 'a thunk?!

Ok, ok, it's pretty naughty, but there's fruit and calcium in there, right?

lol! It’s niche but having googled “half double crochet” more times than you’d think humanly possible, I deeply empathise. 🤣

Actually I was inspired by Little who made one of these for herself the other day - I’d forgotten it existed! 😊
