Had a lovely time celebrating my book launch with the NovelistasInk today.
I made the fruit cake recipe which Jack makes for Amélie in the book when they’re snowed in (recipe is in the book) and served it on a wooden board made by Mr C. He also made the wooden tree decorations as gifts for everyone.

Visually impaired version! A misty, pearl-grey morning, the sky merging into the hills and mountains. There is a little gentle twittering from the hedges and the domed shape of the pomegranate has turned a bright yellow, the prelude to the bare branches of winter

Visually impaired version! A shining, pale blue-grey morning sky with only the faintest trace of a rose-gold blush behind the castle and one almost vertical silver streak from a plane, like a narrow searchlight. #trishaashley #morning #trishaworld #blind #visualimpairment

Visually impaired version! The early dark mauve-grey sky has slowly lightened to a lilac shade, with a soft, grainy look about it, like a pointillist painting. A couple of lazy seagulls are still slip-sliding about on the roof. #trishaashley #morning #trishaworld #blind #visualimpairment

I just finished the last book in the series and I’m going to miss barrister Matthew Shardlake so much. I know I could reread them all later but today I just feel kind of sad. #historicalfiction

Whether it’s Spring/Summer or Autumn there’s always colour to be found on my snowball tree 🌿

Photo of Orion over Glastonbury Tor.
If you zoom right in on the right of the tower and just above there are what look like scratch marks all going in different directions. They are not on the shot before or after. For information, 10 second exposure. Do you think they are shooting stars?
