@goodreads I'm re-reading 'The Botanist' by @MWCravenUK because I only have 107 books on my TBR

What are you currently reading?

The pursuit of a corrupt official started a 2,000-year fight for justice. Max and the Hidden Visitor. The prequel, Max and the Regent Supreme. Two thousand years collide in Max and the Corporate Takeover See bio for UK links, but available on Amazon and KU globally

@deanpb_author 🤣🤣🤣

@NeilARushton I had a colleague ask me if the protagonist in Max and the Regent Supreme was based on our European boss. I assured them it wasn’t, as I wanted to have some nice qualities in my protagonist 🫣😂😂

Just between you and me, writers have you modelled a protagonist or antagonist on someone you know? Or if you're a reader, have you ever thought someone you know matched someone in a book? I promise not to tell anyone 🫣 #WritingCommunity #ReadingCommunity #writingq #bookquestions #booktok

@Disc_light I managed a trip over to "Bolling Hall" a few years ago and the Cherry Blossom there was quite magnificent. I might try another trip over soon to catch it again 🫶

The blossom season has arrived now so I hope to get a few shots of it! Here's the tree in Saltaire

@RBrownAuthor @AnthonyLaFauci Love this answer!

@AnthonyLaFauci shop.ingramspark.com/b/084?params=A… I love that images in my head could potentially work their way into someone else's head...and live there. At least for awhile. It's a little like mind-control.

It's National "Share your favorite book that you've written" Day! Post a link to your book below and tell me something that you love about it.

Writers, hop onto Anthony's thread and post your books! 🫶

@AnthonyLaFauci I love how cathartic it was to write. I love how one chapter in particular broke me. I love that people who have read it, connected with parts of it on an emotional level. waterstones.com/book/cariad/n-…

@AngelaLeeds @oliviamccabe72 👏👏👏

@oliviamccabe72 But being sick can give you the luxury of repose and reflection. Relax into it. Though unpleasant, good creative breakthroughs can happen during times of illness, I have found!

One of the most frustrating things about being sick is I cannot write. What stops you writing? #amwriting #writingcommunity #writerslife

@oliviamccabe72 Nothing really. Although working for a living is quite the impediment.

This simple aphorism has really helped my creativity flourish recently 🫶✍️🥳

What’s a great song that’s longer than 10 minutes?

@colin_alex35207 I know a great poem that these could accompany 👌

Working up some thumbnails and studies of Samson this morning. I like to take the references as a starting point then exaggerate/change them to suit the idea and design of the future painting.
