@sashayanshin @greg_i_yam And this is why the US government is actually suing Adobe! - https://t.co/nRAW0aEC9H

@sashayanshin Thanks, Sasha! The United States government is also suing Adobe for hiding excessive cancellation charges! ‘The Justice Department, together with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), today announced a civil enforcement action against Adobe Inc.’ - 17 June 2024

This is a beautifully written exploration of why we need to take action on climate for our children’s future. So pleased to see it’s being relaunched this year!

What’s your go-to solution to beat procrastination? 🤔

Asking for a friend.

[Trish Groves @TrishGroves]

@halfdoorwriters I can picture myself sitting there, outlining my next book… 😍

@frankwkelly I’m washing mine today, so you’ve got about an hour to take in the laundry. 🧺 ☔️

[Trish Groves @TrishGroves]

The second deadly sin of writing…

…Not writing consistently.

Like, every day.
Even a Tweet
will do…

No excuses.

If you have time to scroll through Insta or Twitter, you have time to write a sentence.

Just one.

My negative self-talk told me so.

[Trish Groves @TrishGroves]

@frankwkelly @BoyneValleyIFF It takes so much work to make a short film and it’s so good to hear that this festival takes such care in making the selections. 🤗

Good luck to everyone who has submitted an entry! 🤞🍀

Things I to do when I should be writing:

Organising
Decluttering
Paper shuffling
Buying notebooks

Procrastination. It’s the first of the seven deadly sins of writing.

[Trish Groves @TrishGroves]

For writers, this also means please don’t send me ten pages of notes with a 24-hour turnaround for the next draft.

My coffee pot thanks you!

[The Hustle @TheHustle]

wait no sorry when I said I’d love your feedback I meant I'd love some compliments

Ireland is a tiny country but has had enormous global impact over the centuries.

What wisdom and understanding can Ireland’s history offer to a world in crisis?

That’s the exciting theme of this summer school.

Why is it that so many (literary and creative) writers struggle to make a living? This article outlines so many barriers, and the advice is ‘Don’t give up your day job.’ Is there an alternative? 🤔 Let’s find out. 🕵🏻‍♀️📚💻 https://t.co/aJnOEDYWum

This event in 1879 was the beginnings of massive civil unrest in rural Ireland.

When the harvest failed and tenant farmers faced famine, many used their rent money to buy food.

Eviction for non-payment of rent meant certain death.

Enter the Land League.

#petticoatrebellion

[michaeldavittmuseum @davittmuseum]

On this day, the 20th of April 1879, thousands of tenant farmers throughout Mayo, Galway and Roscommon were on the march. Posters had advertised a ‘Tenant Right Meeting’ in the village of Irishtown, County Mayo.

@PoolbegBooks Bought it, read it, loved it! 🥰📚

An epic work of historical fiction, with a backdrop of the Irish Land War in the 1880s.

Maria’s storytelling is exceptional.
