Lines I am liking today: ‘“Did he ever make a pass at you?” A friend asked recently. “No,” I said. “Not once. Not ever.” He did have a bit of a reputation, but he probably felt it would have been like making a pass at a cobra.’ Book of Lives #writing #writer #writers #books #book

Lines I am liking today: ‘She swam in streams, slept under the stars and set out each time to ‘be’ with the mountains as one visits a friend. What a wonderful concept, to be with a mountain.’ #writing #writers #writer #books #book #bookstagram #WritingCommunity #writerscommunity

Lines I am liking today - know this feeling: ‘I had more ideas than I could work out, and more indeed than I have ever worked out.’ Book of Lives - Margaret Atwood #writing #writers #writer #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #books #book #bookstagram #reading #readingcommunity

The alpacas are back! Loving the one sunbathing with the bouffant fringe 👌 #canals #canal #canallife #alpaca #alpacas

Lines I am liking today: ‘We were kind to each other because, like snow sculptures, we knew we couldn’t last.’ Book of Lives - Margaret Atwood #writingcommunity #writers #writer #writing #writerscommunity #books #bookstagram #reading #readingcommunity #readers #GoAllIn #memoir

Love the idea of practising ‘sitting in the gaps between the words.’ This One Wild and Precious Life - Sarah Wilson #writing #writer #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #writers #poetry #poems #poet #books #book #bookstagram #reading #readingcommunity #reader #readers #GoAllIn

Have been celebrating the launch of the first Welsh Story Quest this morning down at the RSPB Wetlands. Luckily the sun came out and we could see all the way across to Bristol as well as lots of insect and bird spotting done by all.

Lines I am liking today: ‘Age twenty-five was the first point I actually got to make an active decision in the Choose Your Own Adventure book of my life…You decide to pick up the forceps. Turn to page 34.’ This Is Going To Hurt - Adam Kay #writing #writers #writer #books #book

Lines I am liking today: ‘The thin roof resonated under the rain; it was like being inside a great drum, which might give way any moment under the crazy assault of the drummer.’ La Belle Sauvage - Philip Pullman #writing #writer #writers #writingcommunity #books #book #reading

Hanging out with the three Billy Goats Gruff on the canal at lunchtime. But then whaaaaaat?! Mind blown - a FOURTH billy goat gruff appeared, quite frankly ruining the aesthetic and blowing my mind that the entire 3 Billy Goat's story had been a myth 🤯#writinglife #goat #canal

Lines I am liking today: ‘I’m not entirely sure where these extra couple of hours a day are going to come from - either I need to give up my frivolous hobby of sleeping or cut out my commute by living in a store cupboard at work.’ #writing #writers #writingcommunity #writer #book

Lines I am liking today: ‘First, I had a burning desire to write a novel. Time was running out - I was already twenty-three and practically senile, and I hadn’t published much of note yet,’ Book of Lives - @MargaretAtwood #writing #writingcommunity #books #writer #writers #book

Love this extra detail about The Handmaid’s Tale - that Atwood used real life products aimed at women to name the Aunts and also reinforces how important names can be in literature. ✍️ #writing #writer #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #writers #books #book #bookstagram #read

Sigh 🙄 Still, it’s le weekend 🙌 #writing #writingcommunity #writer #writers #writerscommunity #writerslife

Lines I am liking today: ‘She has a kidney dish in her hands and is shovelling handfuls of blood clots into her mouth. ‘Isn’t this the placenta?’ she asks, blood dribbling out of the corner of her mouth like the disgusting progeny of Dracula and the Cookie Monster.’ #writing

Lines I am liking today: ‘On the positive side, there’s nothing so motivating as a blank page. It cries out to be scribbled on. It fosters improvisation and invention,’ Book of Lives - #MargaretAtwood #writing #WritingCommunity #writer #writers #books #book #bookstagram #reading

Lines I am liking today: ‘The right blade, however, is wedged halfway up the patient’s rectum. Mistake corrected and baby delivered safely. (By me - at this point I wouldn’t trust the registrar to deliver a limerick.’ #writing #writers #writer #writingcommunity #books #book
