Excited as a re-animated corpse to be one of just 30 writers in Scotland selected for @CreativeScots Our Voices development programme for emerging writers! It will help me shape my memoir-in-progress Finding Merlin (or Confessions of a Depressed Vampire) #memoir #writerslift

Hoping to have made an impression with my 50 words of non-fiction for @scottishbktrust's Scottish Stories of Hope. Now to the 1000 word piece.. #Hope https://t.co/kvw1J5cd3i

@Nicola_Slawson "Being single - and child-free - is a little like living in a fairytale, because we never really have to grow up." I've submitted extremely late... but I think time moves differently for single people (and I'm still single) 🌚

"Being single - and child-free - is a little like living in a fairytale, because we never really have to grow up." Submitted a response to @guardian's call for stories from single people - extremely late to the party, but I was too busy being single... 🌚#Singles #singlelife

“I relaxed from the days filled with bloodsport in vain, and returned with the knowledge that we’re two the same, two in Hell, two set free, too alike, you to me.” Ian Curtis, died on this day. TY @johnrobb77 for sharing memories of Ian at tonight’s History of Goth book event 🖤

@upgrade_no @NivenAudrey @EmmaKennedy @SarahWorsnop Same. I was part of a group of international writers working on memoir that CJW gathered in a secret forum where she promised funds, free 1-2-1s with agents/editors and deals with Netflix that never materialised. She got called out, reacted badly and eventually disappeared on us.
