Always worth rediscovering
Reviews need to be fun or there's no point - give yourself a wee break! 🐒😊

I feel your pain - my first book in almost 7 years is out this month. Imagine this feeling but SEVEN YEARS' worth 🙈

When was the last time you let yourself play? Why not try Freewriting? This exercise of writing without stopping or editing can be helpful if you are feeling blocked or anxious about your rough drafting. It lets you silence your inner critic and focus on idea discovery and producing words.
Congratulations Gareth 🚀
Likewise! 😊

Ugh, not good. I had to take them both out of the pond to detach and the frog had a grip of iron!
Oof, never thought I'd be googling 'how to detach male frog from goldfish' 🙈

Loved 'The Age of Islands' by Alistair Bonnett - just a little hop around some of our 680 billion (yes BILLION) islands.

George Saunders in Bristol this evening talking about #Vigil (& America, meditation, death, fun, dogs...)
Liked the idea that a 'yuck' moment when reading your writing back is always an opportunity. 📖
We were delighted to be joined by @starkholborn.bsky.social to discuss her latest novella, FOR THE ROAD, on this week’s #podcast!

I've just finished it and completely agree. Quite surprising.
That sounds great Womble! 🌲 I am reading The Safekeep by Yael Van Der Wouden. Beautiful writing and characterisation.
Sorry to hear that. Hope you are doing ok.
I'm impressed - and it's a good word too.
It's also teaching me words I didn't previously know - logorrhea and flocculent, anyone?
Ill today so have done little except read Barthes's Mythologies. Nice turn of phrase - 'the brutality of meat, the abruptness of seafood' etc #BookSky
