Can't believe I had to read 500 pages of Wives and Daughters before it turned into an Elizabeth Gaskell novel. #Gaskell #VictorianFiction

[Bill Jones @HawkersPot]

Absolutely.

@cindyjefferies1 Hello Cindy, well, thank you. Have been doing an illustration job, but now life back to normal (er, Museum, walking the dog). Hopefully see you soon!

@cindyjefferies1 Are you writing song lyrics again?

[Bill Jones @HawkersPot]

@VictorianLondon Oh, that's amazing! Thank you! I just put in "chimneypiece" and Our Mutual Friend and it's an absolute bonanza! Hours of fun await ...

I managed my first 2 on Wordle yesterday and the word was LOSER! Is the Universe trying to tell me something, maybe?

@bekialdam And yet in soap operas everyone has a different name ... I’d like to see one where lots of people have the same name: “Tom?” “No, not that Tom.” etc etc

My apocalyptic cartoon from the current @forteantimes (July issue).

@GoddardBooks @forteantimes Fantastic!

I put this on Instagram a couple of days ago, but thought I'd share on Twitter too as it's a pretty accurate representation of my life.

This morning I'm taking hope from all the decent, ordinary people who serve, care & enable- not for any limelight or power- but who just quietly get on behind the scenes in imperfect, human ways. People who give a shit- about integrity, honesty, & trying to make a difference.
