I keep wondering if someone has dreamed up/created an all hermit crab journal (called something wonderfully fitting…maybe shell-related? 🐚) That would be so great!

Thank you so much for sharing! This story idea was sparked by real-life overheard dialogue from a widow asked, β€œHow are you?”. And I recently read this powerful post by Megan Falley, Andrea Gibson’s widow, about how this can be such a heavy question to answer. open.substack.com/pub/andreagi...

My mum has won the 2025 Bridport poetry award and Β£5000 in prize money for her poem Bird Child. So pleased for her and super proud. She's in Bridport today with MrsGrow to collect her award.

Congrats to her! I was Highly Commended in flash fiction this year, and I really wish I could have made the trip out to celebrate the other winners. Alas, Canada is just too far away for those travel plans to work. Excited to read her poem in the anthology!
