I've been writing for over 27 years & it's given me so much. Most of all, I'm grateful for the ability to live so many lives through the stories. #writing is a gift anyone can unwrap and enjoy. ♥️✍️📚

Made my day! (and brought back memories....pass the crimpers! 😉)

Word of the Day is ‘swullocking’: swelteringly, stiflingly hot. From 19th-century East Anglian dialect.

Where light transforms into poetry.

Nowadays kids’ books have messages like “believe in yourself” and “you can do anything” but when I was a kid the messages were things like “a lady who has a candy house wants to cook and eat you” and “sometimes wolves can disguise themselves as old women”

@wikivictorian My day wouldn't be complete if you weren't in it. As a Victoriana fan I adore your posts. Happy birthday Helena, and thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

Hello my dear friends, today is a special day... because it is my birthday! 🎂 Hi, I'm Helena!

A big hug to each one of you! 🫶🏻

@cutiieepie6 She's gorgeous!!

I brought my baby home from the shelter the other day. Meet Peanut.. She was sitting quietly in her kennel when I first saw her—tiny, wide-eyed, and trying to be brave. When the volunteer placed her in my arms, she tucked her little head under my chin like she had finally found somewhere safe to rest. That was it. I was hers. The ride home was soft purrs and curious glances out of the carrier. By the time we walked through the front door, she stepped out like she already owned the place.

The fact that you can read a book written by someone who has been dead for two centuries and feel less alone than you do in most rooms full of living people is either the most beautiful or the most heartbreaking thing about literature and I genuinely cannot decide which.

Sunday afternoon, perfect viewing. 🤗 share.google/e4mVBwrBi9aa2k…

@KhanSaba1278 Gorgeous!!!

My grandma is 68 and finished this quilt yesterday. My always rude grandpa said it looks like “a mess of colors”, now she's upset but i said i would post it here and she would know how amazing her work is

🧵 If you’ve ever wondered whether a writer needs to establish early success, or be condemned forever to failure or obscurity, take heart. Joan Lindsay was 71 years old when her classic novel Picnic at Hanging Rock was published. 1/ #writingcommunity #amwriting

People who wear black are seen as more serious and reliable — almost 50% of women and 64% of men agree that black exudes confidence, according to a survey.

@SepsisUK Please don't go. I'm a sepsis survivor and appreciate everything you post here.

Sorry but I'm out of here. I haven't read any notifications for over a week (and I'm not going to), but if you have any questions (genuine and nice ones) or need any help you can easily find me elsewhere! Feels a bit like I'm walking out of a marriage!
