I can't believe a month of my leave is gone already. The weeks are whizzing by! Feeling less tired which is good, but I know I need to go back to my original plan of stepping back from my phone and taking time to just be. I'm too easily distracted!
Tóg go bog é💚

Re-reading Ghost Mountain and completely immersed once again. Mumblin' Deaf Ro's 'exploded heart' is a thing of wonder. My tweet below tries to capture my feelings about Ghost Mountain - now available to buy from good bookshops and from Bluemoose Books

I was lucky to get a proof copy of Ghost Mountain from Bluemoose Books and hand on heart, it is extraordinary. Rónán is such a gifted and unique writer. As soon as I get my finished copy I will re-read it.
