Just finished this. Jeez what a book. Broke my heart in places. In awe of Barbara Kingsolver’s talent. ❤️

Yesterday’s walk down the hill to the farm. Lovely fresh air.

I take the bus to my weekly writing group now. It’s a rural bus route - gentle rolling hills, fields and autumn trees. I just look out of the window and let my creative mind run free. 🍂 (This one from earlier in the year, before autumn arrived.)

Here’s mine. It’s taken me a while to get round to it, loving it so far!

Adding one more to the list below - No Oil Painting by @stgenevieve.bsky.social
‘A micro-heist, major intrigue and an army of quirky National Trust volunteers - No Oil Painting is funny, warm and packed with historical detail.’

Finished ‘No Oil Painting‘ last night. Fantastic characters, brilliant and unusual setting, and fabulous dialogue. It’s a witty and feel-good debut novel from @stgenevieve.bsky.social
Get one!

Came home to this little beauty on the doormat. I was lucky enough to see some early draft chapters, so I know this will be an Absolute Joy!!!!!🤩

Still and silent under the fog today. But high above my head I can hear the pink-footed geese.

Walking in the sunshine today. Helps the writing brain. ✍️

Walking through the woods convinced that @iamchrisscott.bsky.social’s Door in the Woods will appear around the next corner. 😂

Found a wee house in the woods. This is the view from the window of it. 💚

Today walking and faffing about. Tomorrow working on my short story collection. Editor’s notes for the first few stories are in!
Mountain and moorland, sun and shade. 💚

Back from a holiday in Dumfries and Galloway. It’s ridiculously beautiful. 💚

Thank you for asking! I’ve just finished The Lives of the Dead by @fionamckay.bsky.social and it’s absolutely stunning! Loved the fairy tale references threaded throughout.

This has been my view every morning this week. 💚

Didn‘t do any writing. Just watched the waves go in and the waves go out. 🌊

Dramatic sky. Sun, then torrential rain. Got absolutely soaked. But still happy Because I’m at the BEACH. 😊
