A little spooked that the only way I could watch Cabaret was through the library. I absolutely LOVE that the library had it available, but the fact that I couldn't find it an any streaming service... 😬🤨 I don't know. Maybe I'm overthinking it. #library

Oh no, I think I just dreamed up yet another story idea. The one I already started is for the times you feel like screaming at the world to point out everything wrong with it. The new idea is for when you need to escape the world and find glimmers in the small acts of daily life. #amwriting #write

Brought to you in part by the best camera angle ever... It's just one of those days 😅 P.S. The sound makes it funny, so audio up 😂 #funny #writingcommunity #amwriting 📚⏰️

Spent the day at the library today, working on my new book! I also returned Cabaret (the movie version with Liza Minnelli) and picked up The Drowned World by J.G. Ballard. Has anyone here read it? I'm really looking forward to it! #amwriting #amreading #library #thirdplaces #readsky #authorsky 📚💙

One of my favourite things to play around with while I was writing Eltaris, was making all the creatures as large as fathomably possible.

I've been privately messaged by a few readers who tell me my book has encouraged them to explore more fantasy books.
