Do we really need another #bridgetjones movie? www.raemona.com/post/bridget...

Living in a flaky society. Read my latest article; www.raemona.com/post/do-we-l...

My favourite time of year. When Dudley Moore defeats John Lithgow with the Big Lebowski. #santaclausethemovie #thebiglebowski

Glimmer of the day; the lady serving me coffee at a train station kiosk. Smiles, eye contact, warmth and even a lil fact about oat milk heating quicker than cows milk. We wished each other a lovely day, a lovely weekend… and honestly, she put a spring in my step. Humanity can be so simple. #glimmers

Writers, this is your annual reminder if you’re not on any of those ‘books of the year’ list, or if you didn’t get published, or didn’t get an agent, you still wrote a fucking book which is a big deal. Well done us.

The best is yet to come! www.raemona.com/post/celebra...

Spotted a #glimmer @batterseabookshop.bsky.social

Boo. Christmas in 1983 was wild. #scarysanta #freaky #80snostalgia

Reviews are trickling in for my latest book, Glimmers. #glimmers #fivestars

Glimmer of the day; seeing my hand made wreath on the door. Gotta love a craft, like. #glimmers #homemadewreath #christmaswreath

But the most beautiful Christmas tree will always be Stephanie Zinone. #grease2 #underratedmovies #michellepfeiffer

Something I wrote a couple of years ago on believing in Santa and if internet shopping breaks the magical spell. Do you believe? www.raemona.com/post/do-you-...

A gazebo in a classroom. Some fairy lights and a backdrop from Vinted. Absolutely magical. Well done Team Grotto at our local school fair. Best lil glimmer and for a total of £3 ✨

She’s a beauty!

It’s Friday… go in for the kiss And make it last 6 seconds 💋

The end. Pen… down ;) That’s another book written! This was a private project for a woman who wanted her life story written. What’s next…?

Happy Thanksgiving. Here’s a few tips on how to keep it sustainable… theethicalist.com/celebrate-th...

There’s nothing like running a bubble bath on a dark, rainy night. Lighting a few scented candles. All ready to get in. And then your kid barges in to do a poo. Should be my next book, Almost Glimmers.

Did you know that rewatching old TV shows can give you a glimmer? It’s the comfort. The familiarity. Safety. What old TV shows make you feel warm and fuzzy? #glimmers

Do you reckon Cynthia and Ariana get a lil glimmer every time their long fingernails touch during interviews?

That blue. #glimmer

Who’s spotted any glimmers today?

90s nostalgia, hard truths and floppy curtains. Read my take on #boybandsforever for Raemona magazine; www.raemona.com/post/boyband...

I need to wash my hair. I know I’ll get a full on glimmer the second it’s washed and blow dried. And yet, procrastination has a power over me. I need to wash my hair…

Glimmer; after the online shop arrives and the fridge looks full. I feel like this is a forever moment. But it’s a glimmer. The fridge will be empty again in approximately 16 hours.

Cuddled up between Arthur, Rob and Roddy. Sounds like a TV programme from the 80s. #kinokuniya #bookworld

Waking up to the opening credits of Home Alone coming from the living room. Tis the season… or is it a bit too early…? To glimmer or not to glimmer?

Pretty is an understatement, right? #neversawyoucoming

@laurapauthor.bsky.social lovely to find you here as I embark upon a brand new platform (clueless, in the dark but hopeful for light!) You were so kind to me on “the other place” when my debut novel was published in the height of lockdown and I’ll always remember that.

A ‘when the weather is as crap as it is today’ glimmer; the moment you arrive at your destination. Get inside. Lap it up. Change your mindset. #glimmers

Also: If you don't have money to buy my (or anyone's) books, and you live in the anglosphere, before you pirate them, try to get them from your local library instead. They have it or can get it, they pay for the books, and in many places writers get paid for their books being lent. Everyone wins!

Glimmer; when your kid discovers The Simpsons and cracks up laughing within seconds of the first ever episode.

Sly.

Be ready to spot it. #glimmers

Glimmer of the day… It is cold. BUT it is sunny. Cold and sunny go together like tea and toast.

Lunch glimmer. Hot sauce WITH mayo.

Good morning glimmer; unexpected heart to heart on the way to school with another mum you bump into. Same page. No judgement. Load feeling lighter.

Spotted! In @waterstones.bsky.social #liverpool ✨

Give a lil glimmer.

I know I’m all about glimmers, but I do get triggered when I hear someone say ‘on the tellybox’ or mention going on their ‘holibobs’.

Close up view of Jupiter | NASA

Just sayin.

Glimmer of the day; yellow leaves. Who doesn’t love yellow leaves? 🍁

You’re welcome.

My lord, who’s enjoying #wolfhall then?

It’s out now - your local indie bookshop will order it in they don’t have it in stock. Loved my chat with Alastair at Rye Books in East Dulwich on Saturday. The best chats always happen in bookshops, right? #glimmers

Glimmer of the day; when you drag yourself to a Monday yoga class and one of your besties shows up too. Great minds. ✨

daily dose of stoicism

Glimmer of the day ✨ When the heating comes on and you walk past the radiator and feel the warm carpet beneath your socks.

Word of the Day is a true favourite, as some of you will know. Apricity (17th century) is the warmth of the sun on a winter’s day.
