Sure, sex is great, but have you ever cracked open a new notebook and written something on the first page with a really nice pen?

A new sleeping on his face pose. The Teddy Tiger does seem to like sleeping with his head lower than his body, his brother used to do the same. Is he a bat or a cat? 🦇🐈

Lines I am liking today: ‘The body double appears as soon as you start writing. How can it be otherwise? There’s the daily you, and then there’s the other person who does the actual writing. They aren’t the same.
But in my case, there are more than two. There are lots.’ #writing #WritingCommunity

Lines I am liking today: ‘She fell asleep almost the moment her head touched the pillow.
Then, what felt like half a second later, she was awake.
She was awake, and not in her bed.
She was awake, and not in her bed, and not alone.’ Wundersmith - Jessica Townsend #WritingCommunity #writers #writing

Lines I am liking today: ‘You never wanted much out of life. You didn’t even want to go to school.
All you wanted was to be a girl.
It is so simple.
And yet so hard.’ And So I Roar - Abi Daré #WritingCommunity #writing #writerscommunity #writers #Writer #Reading #readingcommunity #books #book

Lines I am liking today: ‘Longmas should be treated with caution: only a very small number develop bonds with humans. Even then, those humans occasionally wake to find themselves being eaten in small ways, which are nonetheless inconvenient - a finger, for instance, or half an ear’ #writing #writers

Was lucky enough to get to see a starling murmuration at Newport Wetlands this afternoon. Utterly beautiful - like witnessing a dance in the sky. #murmuration #newportwetlands #starlings

Lines I am liking today: ‘Before, it was a wide-open mouth with no teeth, from which the tongue of crashing waters, a hundred tiny shine-shine horses, come galloping down to the river below. The sound of it now is the noise of a throat with a wound along its fleshy walls.’ #writingcommunity #writing

Lines I am liking today: ‘The air had grown still. Without the slightest hint of breeze, without the smallest bit of help, every candle on the rooftop was suddenly extinguished.’ 🕯️Wundersmith - Jessica Townsend #WritingCommunity #writing #writerscommunity #Writer #writers #kidlit #readingcommunity

‘She stumbled backwards into the glass of the snow globe…Every inch of her was tensed, ready to flee, but her brain hadn’t yet caught up to her body. She felt slow and stupid &all she could think about was the face in front of her. The face of the evilest man who’d ever lived.’ #writing #writers

Lines that relate today: ‘She was politely perplexed by the rain room (‘What, so it just…rains? Inside? All the time? Why?’)’ Wundersmith - Jessica Townsend ☔️

Celebrating Caturday with the news that the Teddy Tiger doesn't have cancer! 🥳The bad news is he does have to have his toe amputated. I think l'll keep that news to myself for the moment and let sleeping cats lie 💤Off to rob a bank to pay for the vet's bills!💰 #cats #Caturday #cat #catlovers

Lines I am liking today: ‘But Morrigan wasn’t laughing. She had a sudden, swooping feeling like she’d missed a step going downstairs.’ Wundersmith - Jessica Townsend

The Teddy Tiger isn't having a good day. All day visit to the university of Bristol vets to try and find out what is causing the foot infection he has had for over five months.
Anxious two week wait now to get back the biopsy results and pray it isn't cancer. #cats #cat #catlover #catlovers #catlife

Lines I am liking today: ‘Swindleroads are an old-fashioned tool of scoundrels and highwaymen. A straightforward bit of geographical trickery in which one walks down one end of a laneway and comes out the other end in a different location, sometimes miles away,’ #WritingCommunity #writers #writing

Lines I’m liking today: ‘What’s his name again?’
Hawthorne rolled his eyes as he took a swig of water. ‘Depends who you ask. His official, tournament-registered name is Glides Through the Air Like a Hot Knife Through Lard, but I call him Paul.’ Wundersmith #WritingCommunity #writing #writers #writer

‘Morrigan trailed her fingertips over the bumpy topography of the Highlands…through the waves of the Black Cliffs coastline. She snatched her hand back at the unexpected texture - the oceans on the map were wet. Morrigan pressed a finger to her lips; the water was salty.’ #writingcommunity #writers

Lines I am liking today: ‘It wasn’t unusual for her bedroom to change and grow and shrink, to add new features one night and take them away the next. It was very temperamental, as bedrooms go. But it had never built a second door before.’ #WritingCommunity #writing #writers #writerscommunity #writer

A girl after my own heart: ‘Morrigan didn’t like the sound of the Goal-Setting and Achieving Club for Highly Ambitious Youth…But she thought she could probably get on board with Introverts Utterly Anonymous, which promised no meetings or gatherings of any sort, ever.’ #Writing #WritingCommunity

Line I can relate to: ‘I love humanity, I just find real-life humans hard.’ This one wild and precious life - Sarah Wilson #WritingCommunity #writing #writerscommunity #writing #writerslife #writers #Writer #Reading #readingcommunity #readers #books #book
