Michael said this about The Jacobites Plight, book 2 in The Jacobite Trilogy: βYour themes are wider and more interesting by having a large, diverse, cast who are interested in love, money and status and not in fighting battles.β @bloodhoundbooks.bsky.social

Honoured to see my book βAlmost Boysβ (under the author name Isobel Ross) included in the first newsletter from Scotlandβs ACEs Action Community. I hope my story can make a contribution to spreading the word about the importance of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES) to our future well-being.

Two books came out in April which have an important focus on girls' and women's experiences. There is much more to be done on expanding the voices heard but I feel encouraged that this is happening.

Why parents shouldn't always be 'in sync' with their children
Parents are often advised to be constantly attuned to their children and to respond to their every need. But is this always the right approach?
I love talking about the Rupture-Repair Cycle. It helps parents relax. You do not need to be in constant sync with your child. This 2024 article underlines that point.
Quote: "The flow of connection, disconnection & reconnection that offers an ideal mixture."
