Writing today will be revising a short story for assignment and the critical commentary, and if I have time, I might kill off a rogue werewolf in my ongoing paranormal novel.

Today I did the muggle job, studenting, and got some writing done. Counting this a fine start to 2025.
It'll be downhill from here, no doubt, but one can hope ... 🤣

A book cover, no image. Title letters are black and dripping with blood agsinst a plain pink background. Feeding the Monster - Why horror has a hold on us, by Anna Bogutskaya

Enjoyed some fabulous books this year, mostly horror, SF and crime, a few NF for good measure... then I got this beauty, which was a gift & outranks them all. Bloody joyful! #FeedingtheMonster

Hey retro people. You really need to play this awesome game. It’s a proper slice of 80s nostalgia.

Black and white cat with paws in a very small box- his head won't fit but he can't resist a box!

Paws fit, therefore it's his box...

Crocheted lilac and green toy with horns and tail. Imagine a cute lilac baby baphomet!

Mark Eklid's Blood on Shakespeare's Typewriter. Brilliant! Only on page 33 and I'm hooked!
Its a No holds Bard crime thriller!

Floor to ceiling shelves of books.

I recently had a wall of shelves installed (not so elegant as yours because, budget) and calling it a library makes me stupidly happy. Still didn't have enough room for all the books!

Ita beautiful and sunny today and I have been tasked with a creative writing project. Read a book, then write a critical review. Such a hardship!

Coffee mug, half full, next to a book titled 'All Hallows' by Christopher Golden. The cover shows red writing on a black background and a skull with a finger to its mouth in a shushing gesture. Candles blaze in the skull's eyes.

Overjoyed at how awesome it is to be studying for my #CreativeWriting #degree. Currently in a coffee shop reading a horror novel - one of my favourite activities.
And it COUNTS AS STUDYING! AMAZING!

The Society of Authors at #Nottingham #Library with a range of talks & interactive sessions from March through summer! #Authors #Talks #WritingWorkshops www.gigantic.com/the-society-...

Today I will mostly be digitising maps for my muggle job, writing a paranormal novel, and playing with glue & scissors. This last bit is official studenting, an ongoing project essential to my writing course. #muggle #author #student

Week 1 of study so far has involved plenty of reading and quite a lot of buying new notebooks.
Because I don't have a drawer full of notebooks already, honest!

Really enjoying #Bodies. Time slips, murders & mayhem!

Still getting over a horrific cold/virus that affected so me to the point of antibiotics & asthma rescue meds & has me off work for two weeks. Wish I could shake it off as I've got books to write and studenting to do.

Sleeping tabby ans white cat on a human bed with his white paws held in front of him. He looks peaceful

While I shake off the last remains of a lurgy, this dumpling is keeping me company.

Thank Goddess I'm finally getting better after a horrific lurgy - think flu but with added vertigo & dizziness. Glad to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Of course, feeling mildly better means I'm acting as official 'mum/cleaner-up' again as daughter got food poisoning from her dad's! Nice.

Am just wondering if, after the (relative) success of Operation Cone of Power, of another novel based on early #wiccan adventures would do as well. Hope so, because Philip Heselton and I have plans!

Voyage of the Damned sounds like something I need in my life! Off to Google... thanks Cat x
