Good lord! Terrifying - but then we were fearless 😁 Unless, of course, it was more recent…😱

It’s treacherous, mind 😁 One boy wasn’t allowed to play with us after he broke his arm sledging (his mother thought we were a bad influence! 🤣) But go for it!!! 😊

Thanks, John 😊 Yes, great to be among brilliantly talented friends 😁

Thanks so much, Carmella 💙 It’s really appreciated 😊

Thanks, Paul 😊

Thanks so much, Paul 😊 I’m keeping everything crossed this wretched infection is on the wane and I can start writing again

Aw, thanks so much 🌈

Thanks so much, Andy 😊

So many familiar names! ❤️
Congratulations Carolyn!

Brilliantly captured moment in ‘Snogging on Shakespeare Street’, Carolyn, and how fabulous the imagery in ‘Snow: Cefn y Don twmps’. I am there!

❄️❄️❄️

You too - loved your pieces 💙

Thank you so much, Helen 💙 Love the emotional power of ‘Making Tracks’ and ‘Weathering Grief’ is achingly beautiful. Your imagery is staggering, dazzling and I absolutely adore the immediacy, intimacy and brittleness of the captured moment in ‘Snowstars’. Just stunning 🤩

Delighted to have a couple of pieces in December’s The Candyman’s Trumpet @dreich.bsky.social and great to be among fabulous work from friends, @helenlaycock.bsky.social @rburrows.bsky.social @hool415.bsky.social @lawrencemoore.bsky.social @lozzawriting.bsky.social
Huge thanks to Jack Caradoc

The sorrow which with people must 'wear' the weight of war on their skin can be so palpable that it hurts others just to see it. How to hold that with reverence requires very few words, doesn't it? #poemsabout #dogtags @alanparrywriter.co.uk @thebrokenspine.co.uk #staycreative

Fingers crossed - not much happening yet but I live (and cough 🤣) in hope! Thanks for your good wishes - really appreciate it

Absolutely and you have the perfect ones, the right ones to capture the anguish, the immediacy while, at the same time, transcending it to convey the timeless waste, the universal tragedy of war. It’s such an affecting piece, Karen, and really important. Huge respect

🤣🤣🤣 you’d never know! 😉

Thank you 💙

It’s a special one - really powerful 😊

My pleasure 😊 thanks - I’m on what are apparently the ‘big guns’ of antibiotics after the first lot didn’t live up to expectations so fingers crossed…😁
