It’s been three years since I started The Writer’s Walk so I’ve written about why I started it as a bit of a reintroduction. thewriterswalk.substack.com/p/walking-wi... #walking #writing

I’m co-hosting a #CopywritersUnite night on Monday 1 September, from 6.30pm at The Windmill, on The Cut near Waterloo. CopywritersUnite nights are informal drinks with copywriters and copy lovers. No tickets, no agenda, no speakers. It’s free to come along – we buy our own drinks. Hope to see you!

Who’s going for a wander to see the Sturgeon moon tonight? Here’s an edition from The Writer’s Walk archive that pairs a moonlit walk and with some reflective writing. thewriterswalk.com/p/walking-be... #FullMoon #walking #NightWalk

Meet Emily Ash Powell. We chatted about how she got into copywriting, the hurdles she kicked down along the way, how to make the perfect crisp sandwich, and why everyone is interesting when you’re interested in them. thewriterswalk.com/p/walking-wi... #walking #writing #crisps

40 years ago today, Ferris Bueller took a day off 1. This makes me feel really old 2. Life does indeed move pretty fast – so today I’m going to follow Bueller's lead and stop and look around so I don’t miss it

The Regent’s Canal towpath looking might fine today. #MorningWalk

Such a beautiful day for a morning walk. The highlight was spotting this welly boot on the fence in front of the Wanstead Park grotto. From a certain angle it looks like the grotto’s about to eat it. Or is that just me?!

I’m looking for short story recommendations 👀 Which collections have nature or outdoor adventures as a theme? Please and thank you 💚 #booksky #ShortStories #Nature #outdoors

Walk with your head held high. Because as a wise man once said: "Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it." Ferris Bueller New walking and writing prompt on The Writer’s Walk site now: thewriterswalk.com/p/walking-wi...

The jasmine is absolutely hitting the spot right now. I’ve been walking with my nose around London, taking little detours down all the side streets where I know find some. Jasmine is one of my favoure smells. Full of the potential of summer. thewriterswalk.com/p/walking-wi...

I’m excited to see that my ‘Words in the woods’ walk is the @gojauntly.bsky.social walk of the week. It includes nature prompts and a simple writing prompt you can try while stopping to enjoy the views halfway through the walk. walks.gojauntly.com/walks/words-...?

3 years ago today, I launched The Writer’s Walk: my newsletter on walking and writing. Thanks to everyone who’s been along for the walk. I have hundreds more ideas on my list, so there’s plenty more to come. thewriterswalk.com

I had another cracking chat with a copywriter recently – none other than the tone of voice master himself, Nick Parker. We chatted about curiosity, movement, learning and experimenting. thewriterswalk.com/p/walking-wi... #walking #writing

If you could take a walk with anyone, real or fictional, alive or gone, who would it be, and why? #NationalWalkingMonth

This looks fab. The hardest bit is choosing your favourite path!

So excited to see the launch of the London Walking Festival. There’s loads of events happening around the city in May with lots of inspiration for getting out and about.

With the UK about to see the hottest April in 7 years, we’re seeing a lot of sunshine this week. Go for a walk in the sun and use thes prompts for your writing: What does the light reveal that you didn’t spot on a grey day? How does the air feel? How do you feel after your stroll? #walking

An impromptu walk led to a chance convo with BBC Radio Humberside’s Richard Stead – which he aired on his show. If you fancy hearing about The Writer’s Walk and how I started it, it’s available on BBC Sounds until 23 May. I’m on at about 16 minutes into the show. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p...

Calling river-lovers: your river needs you! The Big River Watch runs until 1 May. Spend 15 mins by your local river, record what you see in the free BRW app––& help create a clearer picture of UK river health. I'm taking part.

A few years ago I wrote about saltmarsh for a collaboration between @the-wildlifetrusts.bsky.social and writers’ organisation, 26. Earth Day seems like a good time to share it. 26project.org.uk/26habitats/s... #writing #earthday

These daffs were in perfect bloom on my #morningwalk around Tophill Low Mature Reserve. What have you spotted on your walks that made you smile?

I love the weekly email notes from Dark Angels Writers. They’re a welcome boost at the end of a busy week – today’s came with a lovely walking-inspired writing prompt, too. www.darkangelswriters.com #walking #writing

I had the best #walk with @sutchfun.bsky.social of @gojauntly.bsky.social We chatted about the barriers that prevent people getting outdoors, the lack of diversity, how she’s using tech for good, and so much more. I loved hearing her story and hope you do, too thewriterswalk.com/p/walking-wi...

The sun’s out in London, the blossom is popping and it’s giving me a bounce to my steps. Here are a few of my favourite things about spring. thewriterswalk.com/p/walking-in... #walking #writing #spring

Today is National Walking Day, so what better way to celebrate than a walk with @sutchfun.bsky.social CEO and co-founder of the walking, wayfinding and nature connection app @gojauntly.bsky.social We can’t wait to share our chat on The Writer’s Walk next week. #nationalwalkingday #walking

Happy National Walking Day! Where are you wandering today? I’m heading out and about in London. #walking #writing

From today’s word walk. Sometimes wisdom is right beneath your feet. #walk #writing #wisdom #StreetArt

I loved hearing Paul McVeigh chatting with @kitdewaal.bsky.social last night. They shared the challenges they overcame to became writers, and along with @cathygalvin.bsky.social they’re incredibly generous in the way they support other writers. I left inspired and ready to write. Thank you 💚

Really looking forward to hearing from Paul McVeigh and @kitdewaal.bsky.social at this event tonight. Hope to see some familiar faces, and meet some new ones, there, too.

The world might be going to hell in a hand basket but at least we have another season of Ted Lasso to escape into.

Lovely to meet @adamjfarrer.bsky.social signing his new book at @jebookshull.bsky.social yesterday. He invited everyone who bought a book to also sign a copy so he’ll have a souvenir of his tour. What a fab idea! #booksky #author #writer
