SO excited to have my next event for my debut, All the Waves, Calling, in a very special place - my local Morriston library!😁Swansea Libraries In #Swansea 13th September? Looking for a deep dive into a novel about loss, resilience-and hope? #alllthewavescalling

I did it. 31 days of August, 31 stories written. One of the most incredible writing journeys: days I didn't think I'd write another story, days where I wrote...rubbish, and days where absolute magic happened!🪄 So write, write, write and see where it leads you. #WritingCommunity

ONLY ONE WEEK left to my author talk in the fantastic Morriston library Swansea Libraries Super excited for this😁 '[A] beautiful and atmospheric novel which will grab you from the outset and refuse to let you go.' - Sam Payne #Swansea #books #allthewavescalling

What does it mean to have a voice (and lose it)? What does it mean to have words (a few), to define ourselves (a few more words), to make ourselves anew in this world? (Shout and be heard!). TODAY: the author talk for my exciting debut novel in Morriston Library, 6-7pm #Swansea❤️

Lined paper or blank paper? #writerscommunity Personally I love the freedom to write wherever (top, corners, secret spaces...) and however (big and small and loopy letters!) on a simple blank canvas: let the words, and the soul, soar! 🪁

I don't usually share these kind of things but needed a boost, so here I am with a story that 'almost made it'. I'll keep trying, and looking forward to reading the winning entries 😁

I'm delighted to be joining BlackPearPress as an editor and social media busy-body! I'm so looking forward to reading submissions and working with writers over the coming months - and very thankful to Polly and Tony Judge for the opportunity. 🍐

It's been a while. What did I miss? Hope you're all doing fantastic, or even if you're not, remember - you're phenomenal.

It's been a fantastic journey! ☺️ Thank you for the opportunity, and to those of you have read it, thank you, and to those of you haven't, it's not too late! '...radiant with all the colours of hope'. - Michael W. Thomas '...shocking and also sensational' - Aimee Ann

Have a fantastic 2024! To everyone, to us, to you 🎉❤️

Spent January either ill or caring for someone ill. Then there's work, chores, and everything in-between. Just accepting that this isn't the time to run, but to walk and just be. Writers - how do you find time and energy to write? Do you find time to rest? #writerscommunity

I'm late on this, but congrats to Jon! Moreover, to all the working-class writers out there, this is a great prize with purpose and heart. I had a great time entering, receiving thoughtful feedback in the process, and generally feeling encouraged. 2024 - go for it!

Does anyone else binge flash fiction from time to time? I finally completed all the seasons of Flash 500 Writing Competitions - gripping, enchanting, raw, I'm always amazed at the winning stories. Now I need another season!

'If I could find one word to describe myself on our first date, it’d be stupid.' flash500.com/flash-fiction-… I love how much weight is attached to each single word in each paragraph, piecing together a story and a life - and that final word! @chris_cottom1

A happy (belated!) 1st birthday to my debut, All the waves, calling 🥳A BIG thanks to my amazing publisher BlackPearPress, to Jackie Buxton 💙 and all who supported me, to those who read the novel, will read the novel...Only wished I could have shouted more about this beautiful journey!

'He brightened a few people’s days, not least his own, and that’s great work right there, huh?' ❤️

Vulcana - what an extraordinary novel on an extraordinary woman. And such evocative writing. Have you read it yet? #Welshliterature #read Rebecca F. John

whoever you are, wherever you are, have a beautiful 2025 🥳
