I say just. It's been a couple of months which isn't that long but I'm already chewing the walls.

having just finished writing Gay Robin Hood, I'm feeling like, I want to not be in the Middle Ages anymore but I'm still feeling pretty drawn to historical stuff. half the things I've sketched out are very Victoriana which would be fun!! Still not sold entirely on them yet though.

I have this deep, pervasive need to start a new prose project but I'm not falling in love with any of my story proposals to properly commit to any of them yet

very thankful to have friends in my life as they provide excellent conversation and company, and also motivation to put on real trousers instead of pyjamas

I'm so looking forward to this! And genuinely so touched that so many amazing podcast people are going to be joining us.

Please help us raise funds for our indie audio drama and let us keep telling stories about Welsh literature and medieval folklore!

He’s a nasty crime boy who punches for fun and knocks things down because he can’t accurately approximate his size. I love him. He is a terror.

Last but not least is Rupert. Everyone’s mum loves him. He smells horrific but looks gorgeous from a distance. He screams if you don’t hold him like a baby once every few hours. He thinks he’s the main character of the world and he might be right.

Sibling number three but spiritually The Baby, Ceridwen is either a cat or some kind of Gollum creature. We’re not sure. She has lived a charmed life and wants for nothing but has terrible vision and so is very wary. Her personality is best surmised as β€˜I’m just a baby πŸ₯Ίβ€™. Most guests never see her.

Next in line, but at the bottom of the pecking order despite being massive and incredibly hench is Jiji. He was VERY tiny when we got him. His hobbies include chewing cardboard, eating bugs, falling off furniture, and biting his siblings on the head. He is not popular with them but humans adore him.

Introducing The Squad, too.

This is Nimbus, she’s the eldest and the Boss. She’s extremely beautiful and does not like to be pet, with a few exceptions. I’ve never known a cat so adept at exasperation. She has cat IBS and she’s not very brave about it. She might be Marie Antoinette reincarnated.

I’m Eira, I have made a bunch of audio dramas you can find out more about on hangingsloth.bsky.social!

I write novels, too! I recently finished an upmarket historical retelling of Robin Hood which is looking for a home with an agent.

I have four cats. They are cute and they smell bad πŸ’–
