Getting ready to celebrate #Mabon, the autumnal equinox tomorrow. Part of the plan is to make harvest chilli with venison and corn, followed by apple crumble for dessert

It's finally starting to get cooler and the days are already shorter. Leaves are starting to change. #Autumn is already on the way around here!

Back from the holiday! Had a wonderful time getting away for a few days. Went to a beach and and an indie craft brewery, visited a castle and a garden (with a section dedicated to poisonous plants). Even found a dog friendly second hand bookshop!
Thank you #Northumbria, hope to be back soon

Just a friendly reminder to surround yourself with the kind of people who support their local library, theatre, bakery, bookstore, and café.

All my major #writing projects are now complete (including the first draft of my new folk horror short.) Taking the rest of the week off to have some well deserved quality time with Hubz. Back to work in August

So in the last six months I've:
🖊️Finished two third draft manuscripts
🖊️Typed up editorial notes on a manuscript based on feedback I received for it
🖊️Started work on a new short folk horror story
🖊️Entered one competition every single month so far.
Nice to remind myself of all I've achieved

Started work at 5 AM and I' choked with cold on top of that. Told myself I'd #write after my shift, but my brain refuses to focus on it
Taking a break today. Will try again tomorrow.
Be kind to yourselves

Hubz and I both had the day off yesterday so we went for a long walk to enjoy the weather. Felt so good to go outside at last ☀️
