These little insights into other people's lives are bringing me a lot of joy. A wonderful concept for a podcast: pca.st/episode/4ee4...

Writing 300 words and rewarding myself with a break. It's going to take a long time to write a book at this rate.

A couple of one-sentence poems in here from me 😊 #Poetry #PoetryCommunity

The wonderful broadcasting of the cheese rolling competition from Coopers Hill full of derring-do , weird commentary and interviews high in comedic value deserves a feature film a-la 'Fishermen's Friend' 'Local Hero' get writing folks !

When the Bristol Hippodrome was opened in 1912, it featured a huge water tank beneath the stage. This tank could be filled with 100,000 gallons of water in order to stage naval and aquatic scenes. The tank was destroyed by a fire in the 1940s.

My fortune told, The wet dog chose me, Shower of infidelity, Gleaming pearls of sweet serenity, Drowned God carry me, Into the depths of my morality. #WeirdMicro #Poetry

Falling leaf in Spring, Time's bitter conundrum, The bird song carries. #Haiku #Poetry #MorningMusings

Now part of a Bristol retirement home in Clifton, this tower was until 1977 part of Emmanuel Church. In 1914 Agatha Miller and Archibald Christie married here and six years later Agatha Christie would publish her first novel - and go on to become the most read author in history.

This might be of interest to any #writers in/around the #Bristol area. I went last year and it was excellent, and planning to attend again this year: www.bristol.ac.uk/english/stud...

It's a hard life.

Here is a poem. ‘The Lanes’.

I cannot stress this strongly enough: Support your local theatre, café, bookstore, bakery, and library. We breathe life into these places when we support them. They need us, and more importantly, we need them.

You’re not violating a "reading rule" if you opt not to finish a book that's not resonating with you. Life is finite and we thus have a finite number of books to read. Reading shouldn’t be a chore, and you needn’t feel guilty for ensuring that your time reading is spent reading things that you love.

The haunted house wasn't nearly as scary as trying to hold Marie's hand. Did she know this was a date? Maybe I should suggest the Tunnel of Love next. Josie pondered, before a clown jumped out making Marie scream and grab her hand. Perhaps the Tunnel wasn't necessary after all. #VSS365 #Haunted

They called themselves the #misfit toys, and adorned themselves with vampy, doll-like makeup. Making non-conformity into a form of beauty, a choice. When they talked to people, there was none of my off-ness, that sweaty, quavering awkwardness. How I yearned for that. #vss365

Cobaea scandens is commonly known as the “cup-and-saucer” vine because its cup-shaped flowers sit within a saucer-like calyx. In the Victorian language of flowers it symbolised “gossip”; perhaps because when tea cups came out, so too did all the latest scandal! #FolkloreSunday

I've just been to see Our Land and would highly recommend it. It's incredibly important, powerful, and moving, and there are also plenty of opportunities to laugh at the absurdity of 1% of people owning 50% of land in England. www.ourlanddocumentary.com #RightToRoam #OurLand

I dove into the sea to swim in glorious cold and feel the crack of my ribs heaving for air because it made me feel alive and you had made me feel so little for so long. An old song, sung again as the selkie, the mermaid, the siren; I escape to the sea to be free. #VSS365 #Dove

Following teaching a workshop on publishing one's poetry at the @lyrafest.com this weekend, I have requests from participants for suggestions of magazines interested in poetry about neurodivergence or nature. Ideas? Please share!

This is really wonderful to hear. I have long been a fan of Jim Ghedi's music, having seen him gigging when I was a student in Sheffield.
