Writing a musical book means balancing 'clever' lyrics to make people go 'ooh' with also making sure that the lyric blind audience member sitting next to them still follows along

Anna Wintour is stepping down from Vogue. I care more about this than I do about there being a new Pope.

Picked yellow raspberries and some blueberries from our friend's allotment and had them on our pancakes for breakfast - the dream! 🥰

Quote from my Gen Z English student when discussing dystopian and utopian fiction today:

'If the Government don't listen to the people then society is cooked.'

The kids know what's best for us and the kids are alright.

A fresh week begins! I'll be doing lots of editing and recording and line learning this week. Thinking about how ten years ago this lifestyle was the dream and now I'm living it 🥹 Very grateful for my Mondays. Hope you're all having a lovely week ✨

Looking at the pictures to remind myself that the sunny weather did happen ✨☀️

Everytime I see illustrator's post their work or an author posting their cover artwork, I am in awe. I can't draw and I love to see it!

If you're having a bad day, spare a thought for my student who is going on a school holiday to New Zealand next week but isn't looking forward to it, because they have to spend the week visiting art galleries and museums and 'that's boring'.

I've been doing this for years, I know what goes on and how it works and I'm *still shook* at the prices that are just for marketing. #EdFringe #DareToDiscover 2/2

Little Strings (Clare) @littlestrings.bsky.social · Jun 4

Would anyone be interested in us (@shortsweettheatre.bsky.social ) publicising the *actual costs* we're being asked to pay for Edinburgh Fringe marketing?

I know we got rid of them because of COVID but I do miss magazines in waiting rooms.

Just a reminder that it's almost the end of May aka the last call for all those end-of-month deadlines you promised yourself that you'd get to earlier!

Being a freelance creative also means being your own graphic designer, photographer, executive assistant, social media manager, food poisoning taster and if you have time, your actual artistic work.
