Well I leapt out of my comfort zone to read aloud (1st time!) during a Flash Fiction evening in Bath at the weekend. I shared my story 'Bloody Mildred' which was SL and published last year. A lovely evening with such talented writers. Thank you @judehwriter2.bsky.social for the invite 😊

Want to write with me in April?

My Glorious Words course is all about concision, specificity, imagery, & tone. We play around with techniques. We make up neologisms. Hopefully a fun learning experience!
