#WritingCommunity This evening, 6 pm BST, is our #AuthorInterview with @ainegreaney.bsky.social. Her short story collection takes place largely on the beaches of Cape Cod, or in Ireland. What better way to cool off than plunging into a bit of craft discussion? Join in on #WomenWritersNet

Happy #Caturday from Obie, who likes to live it up with bags for life. #WritingCommunity

Before our little trip to France, I used TripFiction.com to choose a book set in the Dordogne region. I love recognising features of a place I've read about! I highly recommend searching for destinations on this site and reading something new. #travel #amreading #BookSky www.tripfiction.com

What are people reading? For me: Sally Rooney's Intermezzo, which I looked forward to since she's a huge name. But why must we hear every single thought and minute action, often in page-long paragraphs? Tell me what you love in this, so I see it too. #BookSky #amreading #WritingCommunity

Don't forget our #AuthorInterview on #WomenWritersNet tomorrow evening with @lindzmcleod.bsky.social. I'll be chatting with her on behalf of @womenwritersnet.bsky.social about her book An Honour and a Privilege, a marvelous volume of short stories plus craft reflections. #WritingCommunity #BookSky

How's your attention span? It has come to my attention (see what I did there) that mine could be improved. As it happens, attending a concert with 200 or so twentysomethings was just the wake-up call I needed. Blog post (and #music #recommendation) below. #WritingCommunity #WritersLife

As my half-term week off ends, I'm sharing what inspiration powered my writing, cleaning, weeding, and reading: hikes and art, of course! Have you treated yourself to anything with Wow Factor lately? Blog post below #WritingCommunity #Art #BookSky

I thoroughly enjoyed Taylor Jenkins Reid's The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. I always pause before my next read to write favourite quotes in my notebook. Do you have book-honouring rituals when you finish one? #BookSky #WritersLife #WritingCommunity #Literature

This Thursday at 6 p.m. GMT, follow #WomenWritersNet to join our discussion on writing about romance and intimacy. Sometimes those are the hardest scenes! I'm looking forward to hearing your recommendations and ideas. #WritingCommunity #Romance

I watch Lincoln every February. It's one of my absolute favourite films, with impeccable acting and writing, and it thrills me to the core with each viewing. Have you seen it? What are your perennial favourites? #film #movies #history

Obie reckons if he had thumbs, he'd be a writer too, plus increase the all-around mischief capacity exponentially. #WritersLife #WritingCommunity #Cats

I've been pondering what makes a character (and a real-life person) well-rounded. Collecting enough quirks and juxtaposed opposites? What do you think? Blog post below. #WritersLife #WritingCommunity

Fear can be contagious. How do we make sure it doesn't stifle us? Blog post below about appreciating art and staying creative even when the world feels inhospitable. #WritingCommunity

#Caturday with Obie.

Obie having a good, sunny bask and feeling kingly like his namesake Oberon. #Caturday
