Intro time…
I’m Suzie, I was a doctor in a hospital until one day I stormed out in a fanfare of bagpipes and glitter spray.
Now I hide in the mountains and write books about human bodies in history.
Mortal Monarchs, Vital Organs and the History Stinks kids series so far… with more to come. ✍️👑⚰️🗡️💀🕯️🪦🥃

My 365 is ending but we go again. This time each week will have a theme: a colour or number etc, I’ve yet to work that out. Now it’s less about doom scroll avoidance and more the creative fun. Oooh I have a new Nikon Z/RED collab coming, so hot it’s not yet off the press. *taps fingers impatiently*

Finally got round to seeing the 2022 All Quiet on the Western Front. It was visually stunning. Every shot. No surprise it won Oscars for cinematography etc.

It's not often that I'm so engrossed in a book that I finish it in a day. That was superb.

Dear BBC News, Prince Harry visiting his dad is not breaking news that needs to take priority over discussing Russia flying drones in Polish airspace & our PM being ok with the US Ambassador’s close friendship with a pedophile.

I feel the need to point out that I currently have twice as many TikTok followers as The White House.
This gives me petty pleasure.
