Installment 30 of the nature diary is available to read now if anyone would like to - I am now up to September. It's lovely to look back. burnj.substack.com/p/the-univer...

A catch-up on my nature diary. Feels odd to be typing August in November but good to revisit what you were thinking and feeling at the time. In this aritcle I also quote from Pamela Gormally's wonderful collection, which she was kind enough to give me as a gift. burnj.substack.com/p/the-univer...

And it is. Jane's Substack has contributed to my own growth. I've not read anybody else's work for months now, but I will read this one and urge you to do the same. Jane made me realise that how I write matters more than trying to emulate anybody else. Thank you <3

I am having a small personal celebration - 19 months of dedicated work has led me to my 100th Substack article - it feels like an achievement to me :-) burnj.substack.com/p/the-univer...

This workshop is coming up next week if anyone would like to join me there xxx

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 The stunning cover @candlestickpress.bsky.social ‘Almanac Twelve Poems for 2026’ is the wondrous creation of multi-talented artist & poet @Janeburn.bsky.social & it features poems by Jane and many others brilliant poets. 🤩 Congratulations👏 I’m saving to read in the new year! 💫 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

I painted and donated this watercolour of two Palestinian Sunbirds for @sidhepress.bsky.social and hope that it helps to make a difference to people in need.

I was asked by @candlestickpress.bsky.social if I would like to do the cover for their 'Almanac: Twelve Poems for 2026' I picked up a paintbrush and paper and the flowers kept on coming, coming, coming. Available here: www.candlestickpress.co.uk/pamphlet/alm...

My next diary installment is here if anyone would like to read it - I will link to it here: burnj.substack.com/p/the-univer...

I spend time with nature & discuss, a little more each time how health is impacting each of my days, how connecting with nature is something I can do. I worry my articles are dull. They are not about epic journeys, or achieving anything huge. burnj.substack.com/p/the-univer...

Another nature diary entry here on Substack :-) burnj.substack.com/p/the-univer...

Another PhD rejection. So I keep on turning to my diary and I work on accepting my place, though my soul strain against it, I work to tamp it down. I write, I paint. I find what love and happiness I can. burnj.substack.com/p/the-univer...

I have written some more of my nature diary. Lillies, birds, spiders. Nature is incredible. burnj.substack.com/p/the-univer...

Thank you so very much @seaninhughes.bsky.social for your incredible review of my @ninearchespress.bsky.social book - I am so moved and grateful xxx

Nature is truly saving me right now - I am so very thankful for it and maybe I will never get anywhere, but here, in nature, is where it is good - I must let go my grip on the rest of life that I will never really understand. burnj.substack.com/p/the-univer...
