@CornerForNature These are amazing!

Excellent mothage from Twisted Twee at Not on the High Street.

THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS was released 34 years ago this week. One of the most commercially and critically successful crime thrillers ever made, the making of story is like having an old friend for dinner… 1/45

@TeeBag44 @punt_rd Related: Michael McKean in Better Call Saul, The X Files, and Spinal Tap. Had a huge whoa on the Spinal Tap IMDB page, 20 years into watching the film semi-regularly 😬

@punt_rd Christopher Guest

What was your aha moment when you realised ‘wow, that’s the same actor!!’?? I’ll start: Janette Goldstein Aliens & Terminator 2

My timeline on every channel is 85% David Lynch and I am here for it ☕🦉🏔️🏔️

@NoContextBrits There is a huge gap in the Midlands where the orange chips are

🌳 2024 🌳 The year I (@CMDoet) launched my project to bring people and nature closer together though poetry. Wishing all my friends and followers a happy and healthy 2025.

Me, to myself, ugly-crying at midnight: "stop buying books!" Gorgeous, heartbreaking, illuminating pamphlet from the late @BevisKathryn @SerenBooks ✨ Yes, I bought The Butterfly House too 🦋

A fine festive read under the belt - Love the Albatross from @DeborahEHarvey 📚 The poems are heart-wrenching, punch-in-the-gut jewels, and the book is a masterclass in poem endings to take your breath away. Available from @IndigoDreamsPub

THE EXORCIST was released 51 years ago today. Acclaimed as one of the greatest horror films ever made, and among the most enduring works of director William Friedkin, the power of the making of story compels you to read it... 1/58

"What are your plans over Christmas?" Plans? I have plans the other 358 days of the year. My plans are to have no plans for the next week.

Exhausted from four days of studying and not enough sleep yet instead of actually trying to get more sleep, I'm up late reading the endless supply of very detailed theories about Twin Peaks ☕🦉🏔️🏔️

@heatherwastie @BevisKathryn @SerenBooks Great shout, thank you 🙏

I'd like some new poetry to read over the Christmas break. Drop your recommendations or promote your own books below please! 👇👇👇 #PoetryBooks

@wondykitten @NineArchesPress I'm loving it, Wendy. It's right up my street.

A book to keep me company on a cold, torrential November Sunday, from @wondykitten @NineArchesPress 🐦‍⬛ #AmReading #PoetryBook

There's frankly no need to do me a dirty and autocorrect an apostrophe where an apostrophe does not belong

Yes, it's self-promotion in it's most pure form: I'm reading at my own event with the talented Leah Atherton and the hilarious John Woodall later today. Join us on Zoom, the link is on the @offaspressuk website.

@ArcCreativeArts @KraziKuli & I would love to have you at Virtual Voices sometime. Send me your email address and we can arrange a date.

@ArcCreativeArts I'm reading at my own event - Virtual Voices - on Zoom on 23rd Nov, but nothing else lined up at the moment. I'm having a purposely quiet period after a busy summer. Will keep an eye on your launch plans, hopefully you'll have an event locally?

This is a big moment in my poetic life! I am mightily chuffed & genuinely surprised to win this. My fellow shortlistees are all great and successful poets, so it's even more of a privilege to have won and have my first chapbook on the way. 🤓 Watch out for more info to come 1/2
