I cut through Lincoln Square on my way to the Creative Non-fiction lecture at Melbourne Uni.

Sally writes cluelessly about decor and is baffled by her new husband and her sister. A mysterious Great Aunt must be located. Oh yes, and can that tempting stranger be ignored? 'I loved every single second I spent reading it' #holiday #reading #mystery. www.amazon.com/Truth-Club-G...

Taking my creative writing seriously-it's non-negotiable if I ever want to kick that goal through the posts.

Book ordered. At least it only needs to get across the water to Melbourne.

A small green plant grows upward from a crack between two pieces of dark, textured bark. Overlaid text reads: 'They have been burying us, not realising we were seeds of revolution.' – Tom Nutting.

'We Were Seeds' is a riveting poem by Tom Nutting, drawn from the trans rights protests and counter-protests in Bristol, April 2025.

Black and white photo by Adriana Oliveira Correia, of a woman grabbing her head and face with her hands, looking in despair. Image is purposefully distorted.

I didn’t sleep well last night. My head stuck in this awful loop of how crap things seem, and the people to blame for said crap feelings.
Realisation:
Crap feelings are all mine and noone else’s doing.
I’ve wasted my time in this loop when I could have been sleeping.
I’m desperate for coffee now.

Seeking Spirit My quest has begun (or, resumed)

Since my beautiful mum's death I have felt a sense of immense love. So, I'm on a journey of exploring what this means, and how this might change my life ... Seeking Spirit

Black and white photo of mum in 1968.

My beautiful mummy passed away on Saturday, aged 91.
My heart hangs heavy with grief, and simultaneously, filled with love, for the most amazing, incredible, brilliant woman who shared 60 years with me.

Tish, that sounds so lovely. Sending your mama lots of healing.

Book buying is a hobby entirely unrelated to book reading

No truer words #booksky

Hahaa, yes, totally!

Oh yes, I loved that version too. I so wanted a garden like that (and that house). What an adventure it was.

It's a beautiful and supportive community for artists of all modes and genres. Welcome @richardcastlemaine.bsky.social

I love this @helenivory.bsky.social - if only folks considered the impact of milk on the mama and her bubs.

What a welcome arrival! During these past 6 months of caring for unwell, elderly parents, I am so looking forward to reading something that will bring a smile to my face.
@robgotobed.bsky.social excited to open (and read) your 2024 book.
