Fascinating story from my neck of the woods.. #Wales #history #archaeology www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Tucked inside a little church in Pembrokeshire, and once used as a gatepost to a farm, is this 5th to 6th C stone. The Latin inscription thereon memorializes Rinaci. #history #Wales

Delighted to find both of these at the charity shop today!😃 I haven't been able to find Grumpy Old Men anywhere, and it's one of my favourite comedies. Cost 10p each!

Life's been tough lately, so today I'm taking a break. Planning a pub lunch, a visit to one of my favourite book shops, and a stroll beside the sea. Happy Friday, all!

In case you missed it yesterday…

I love my crazy, wild garden at this time of year. Full of birdsong and wildlife. Soul food.💚

Last night, I dreamt my toes were webbed, with gelatinous, pink skin stretching from one to the next. Maybe it's time to succumb to the call of the deep.😄 #Cthulhu

Just sent my latest newsletter, complete with an apology and an explanation for its lateness. Thanks for your patience, friends. 🙏💜 New subscribers are more than welcome via link in bio.👋

An attempt at nature therapy to calm the stress. Did it work? Yes, while I was there, but I think it's too cold to sleep on the beach.

The last few weeks have been tough for personal reasons, but yesterday I received an anthology invite. Life always provides a glimpse of light.✔️☀️

Awesome! Is that within the nature preserve? Anybody wants more information about the region just Google search Ty Canol, in Pembrokeshire It’s beautiful! …… I wonder how many distant cousins are there that I haven’t found?! 🫣😆💞🇨🇦

One of my greatest pleasures, as a scientist, was botanising in Pembrokeshire in Wales. In places, it feels v like an Irish landscape & parts of Clare. It has a special magic. Nearby is the stunning Island of Skomer, land of puffins!

💖 oh, I'd love to bring a picnic and a book here for a long quiet read

Received a rave review for The House at the End of Lacelean Street today that states: "Such an amazing tale, this is the portable magic that Stephen King speaks of." Brightened my spirits, that's for sure.😍 mybook.to/LaceleanStreet

For #IndieApril, I'm going to make a 🧵of some of my fellow indies' books that I love. Starting with "Lianna and the Hombit" by Valinora Troy. This middle grade fantasy mystery made me laugh and cry (I'm totally unbiased - I illustrated it!). www.goodreads.com/book/show/24... 📢📚 #Booksky

Where are my fellow treehuggers?🌳 Let me introduce you to the ancient woodland, known as Ty Canol, in Pembrokeshire. #trees

Just me, escaping to an idyllic portrayal of a bygone era.😅

Spent the whole day working in the garden, surrounded by birdsong. Aching, but most enjoyable.🐤 Currently bracing myself for the 'heavy winds and rain' that's forecast for most of the bank hol weekend. Typical Britain!😄

The little church by the sea at Mwnt, Ceredigion, where my Gothic ghost story, Immortelle, is set. (N.B. This is a second edition, hence few reviews. 1st edition has over 200 ratings/reviews on Goodreads with a 4.33 average.) Link:https://mybook.to/Immortelle2ndedition

Apologies for missing this yesterday, @ivygrimes.bsky.social! I hope you had a wonderful launch. Wishing you much success!

The suggestions list for this year’s British Fantasy Awards is now open! Anyone can add their favourite SFF titles first published in 2025! forms.gle/YcGUjcbU99R5...

Stressed about my elderly dad's health, so I've retreated to the summerhouse with a literary themed jigsaw. Who else loved The Secret Garden as a kid?

So, as to mark WORLD DOWN SYNDROME DAY, I have put together a list of books that have a person with Down Syndrome as the main protagonist or in the case of one book as a secondary character. #LotsOfSocks www.fantasybooknerd.com/2026/03/book...

Stumbled upon a great new #bookshop called Brown's Books in #NewportPembs yesterday. (My purchases are on the right) So cozy and welcoming! Be sure to pay them a visit if you're in the area.📚

It's important for people in Wales to understand that Farage is fundamentally an *English* nationalist. He sees Welsh people as essentially lesser than english people. A Reform UK government would be an enormous step backwards for devolution, Welsh language revival, and Welsh self-determination.

Some recent acquisitions: @danielkraus.com David Nicholls @catherinemccarthy.bsky.social @spookysterling.bsky.social I’ve read Catherine’s book and Daniel’s book already and HIGHLY recommend them. I’m so excited to read the other two!
