Here's an illustration of my main character, Martha - drawn by my artistic daughter. She's done several more too - I just need to figure out how to add them to the book! #SecretsoftheSapphireSeaGuillemot #middlegradefiction #youngadultfiction #WritingCommunity #magic

There was a pink rainbow in a pink sky this morning as the sun came up! #rainbowsky #sunrise

ATTENTION Despite what you may think, the 1980s we're NOT 20 years ago. They were 40 years ago. 20 years ago it was *checks notes* 2002.

Don’t think of all the no-responses you get on queries and submissions as rejections; think of them as your writing being so good the agent/publisher died of shock. Keep killing it out there. #writing #writerslife

Marley likes to find unique places to curl up and has found he fits perfectly into my daughter's violin case... #cats #CatsOfTwitter

Secrets of the Sapphire Sea - Book 1: Guillemot #fiction #middlegradefiction #magic #adventure #WritingCommunity

A super assembly this morning that made us all think about why the arts are so important and also to hear and see some of our Moorlanders share their love of music, drama and dance. #artsweek #MoorlandsWay #Intrepid

If you're not in the queue, don't stand near the queue - you're causing a hell of a lot of tension.

My daughter has been adding beautiful hand drawn illustrations to copies of my children's book. Not a smudge! #WritingCommunity #illustration #mgfiction #ChildrensBooks

Wow, I've sold 11 books in the past 2 weeks. Not top of the bestsellers yet but this is a massive boost for me. Try and fail but never fail to try! #WritingCommunity #writerslift #mgfiction #fantasyandmagicforchildren

These 2 Moorlanders have completed their biggest ever cycle, along the canal to Skipton and back, 60 miles in 2 days!! Beautiful route, loads of wildlife and we saw a heron catch a fish. #leedsliverpoolcanal #canalcycling

I’ve never wanted to be in a gang more than this one…

I completed my first go tri triathlon yesterday! Blummin cold water, hilly cycle, hilly run but I loved it, would do it again. I'm always telling my children to try new things so decided to take my own advice. Great atmosphere. #leeds #worldtriathlon #gotri #lakeswimming

This is the coastline in Guatemala clogged with plastic from one of world's most polluted rivers How can we sit silent as our governments, in thrall to profit-driven big business, wage this one-sided war on our planet & on Mother Nature.

Thrilled to have sold my painting of Whitby Harbour on Artfinder. #art #painting #seascape #landscapepainting #Whitby
