Tonight! My #shortfilm Feeding Grief to Animals will air on #BBC4 @ 10.30pm! A film about my experience of #miscarriage told through the medium of shadow puppetry. A story of grief and hope. I am so thrilled to finally be able to share it #bbcarts

@Rhys_Owain Love that painting! We've got tons of snow at the moment - advantages of living in the mountains! (though proving pretty lethal trying to get anywhere...)

[Rebecca Parfitt @EditorRebecca]

Read my #Gothic tale of #pregnancy & #superstition set against the tropical backdrop of the Philippines! Very excited to see this story in print, written during a very strange & turbulent time in my life.

Heard from #LesMiserables today & it feels so relevant:
'There's a grief that can't be spoken,
There's a pain goes on and on.
Empty chairs at empty tables'
Hugged my parents for the first time since March today, I don't know when I will be able to again. #Lockdown2

[Rebecca Parfitt @EditorRebecca]

Today's goldfish scenario has pretty much summed #2020 up for me: 2 yr old daughter finds 'Joy' floating at the top of the pond, dead. Leaving 'Sadness' (our other fish) to swim alone in the depths...

[Rebecca Parfitt @EditorRebecca]

Another scary one from me! This one is set in the Philippines inspired by a very strange experience I had when I was there... #gothic #horror #superstitions #amwriting
