A couple of hours writing, working on stuff, by the sea. Early tea of fish and chips. Not a bad afternoon.
A mutual aid T-Shirt seemed appropriate for a peer support style conference #NLISN26
I was going to do a load of contrasting words representing the conflict between ADHD and Autism, but it's still too warm upstairs! So instead, a cut down idea on my letterpress to catch the idea, will have to come back to it another day.
Another custom letterpress print for someone today. (It was far too hot in my little print room / spare room to do this!)
Trying to write a few hundred words for @jsecker.bsky.social and Jo Parker this morning in the open air office...
Still coming down from a dentist check up (they stress me enormously), so treating myself before going home.
Filled up the pen! Good excuse for a writing break as well as a change in colour, always love the green inks 🖋️
Trying to write a bit more outside this afternoon, but I appear to be melting....
Just spent the last hour making a custom letterpress print ordered by someone yesterday evening. A few days to dry, then into the post it goes!
Only if you make them dress like Sarah the AI bot from Harry Hill, to make it funnier?
A bird off to Glasgow! About 8 hours flying 🦉 Take *that* instant messaging!
They didn't like the typeface, wanted something plainer, so did it again in a "grot" typeface...
Just had a couple of hours in York with the lad so I could go to Toppings bookshop! Bonus, I'd forgotten the poetry pharmacy had opened up there too.
Someone ordered a custom letterpress print today, so here is the first proof! Using nice new wooden "Mansard" type I bought last year :)
Currently without a desk because the 20year old has been building his present from the Lego House in Billund!
Notebook out, let's see if I can get some writing done in today's office...
Lego sorted and packed up for Intro to Lego Serious Play (online) workshop! Will start posting this out on Tuesday... LegoJune2026.eventbrite.co.uk
