I write books. Sometimes win awards. Crop circle chaser. Myth lover. Collector of folklore. Here for the magic.
Today Lucy has been busy helping me in the garden, digging up all the newly planted seedlings and trying to catch butterflies.
Combination of high spring tide and storm force winds makes for interesting weather...
Yesterday, out with good friends at one of my all-time favourite places. Pure joy
Yes, it's a bit cracked and grubby, but considering this ammonite is somewhere between 150 and 180 million years old, it isn't looking too shabby...(pulled it from the ground just now)
Read this soon after my father died. It made me feel better about the process of death and grieving (the subjects we don't talk about, but really should). And we all need to write a will in case we die alone & someone like @christinamartin.bsky.social has to find out who we were and what we wanted
The villain who eats all the bird food he can stuff into his little face from the squirrel proof 🙄 bird feeder...
Happy solstice! A gazillion people up on Glastonbury Tor have been ullulating, drumming and blowing horns all night, with a crescendo of joyous clamour at sunrise. On days like this I wonder about moving, but love the view too much! It's just part of living here 🥱🌅💛
Today's Badger Book Club recommendation is Karin Celestine's wonderful book, The Joy Bringers. Madge says she loves this story because it features a very special grandmother badger, and it's full of summer folklore and magic. She gives it the full five peanuts! 🥜🥜🥜🥜🥜 #badgerbookclub
"Like a YA Moana with Clash of the Titan vibes"? I'll take that. This review of Sea Spinners has made my day! 💛
A screenshopt from SF Said's instagram story yesterday 👀 - I felt really honoured Sea Spinners got a mention!
