Thank you, @writers_hq 😘 Always pleased to have the inspiration on a Monday (Please Vs Thank You)

She pressed her lips to a 'p' and the sun pushed through the clouds. Toes sunk clover-deep, her words tumbled into birdsong as blooms brushed her fingers. Thank-yous flew from her throat and Summer flourished to the tune of her words. Magic indeed. #MicroflashMonday #WHQCommunity

With each thick slick of paste she thought of him. Lining up the edges, she thought of him. Hiding the old pattern with a fresh design, she thought of him. She only stopped thinking once the room was new. No more old patterns, no repeating mistakes #MicroflashMonday #WHQCommunity

One of my favourite books. Always a little reminder to be brave, be kind, and do wonderful things 💖
Thrilled to know that @charliemackesy is working on a new book. https://t.co/0eV7KY51qs

The Housing Market: Thick with dust and falsehood, the fruit bowl wasn't the only bad apple at No. 48. As another potential buyer viewed the wares, the plastic oranges kept their deceitful shape and a voice from below whispered, 'Ah, fresh flesh.'

Had such a wonderful evening last Thursday at @curve_leicester watching @nationaltheatre's @oceanonstage. Hard to believe it was a week ago, but there's still a touch of magic lingering around the peripheries ✨ Fiction and reality blending seamlessly… https://t.co/HP2d43tfIw

I'm fantastically awful and inconsistent when it comes to Twitter, BUT - a couple months ago I had a story published in this strange and wonderful little collection, and @CrocollSmith put a ton of work into making it a real living thing so if you haven't seen it yet, click below.

‘Through the Pale Door’ by @_EllenHarrison in @LoveLettersPoe Volume II: Houses of Usher had me holding my breath with her delightfully gothic tale! So much poetry in her words!”https://t.co/A2jewEPjla

@reneecronley @LoveLettersPoe How kind. I'm in good company - really enjoyed how different your take on it was!

Did you know that squirrels represent renewal, balance, and the ability to adapt? A little Autumnal inspiration finally got me picking up the paintbrushes and penning a seasonally suitable poem.

Some favourites from late Summer / early Autumn. Fell deliciously into fae with @neilhimself and @joannechocolat (who was born in Barnsley, like me!) and continued the escapism with @philipgwynnejones' Venice. I'm now working my way through his five prev… https://t.co/iwK2GLMtu9

On the last day of March, when it has snowed, rained, and the sun shone in between, here I am welcoming Spring with a bit of 👩‍🎨 & ✍️.

Had a beautiful weekend in the #BreconBeacons. Here’s a few photos from Sunday during our Four Waterfalls walk and, as if that wasn’t enough, we went to a fifth in the afternoon (Henryhd Falls, last pic). Achey legs, happy heart 💚 https://t.co/rGk2abv2C8

Had the idea to paint this robin a few weeks ago and finally got around to doing it this morning.
Extra pics to show that sometimes the birds stop to say hello and join me for lunch ❤️ https://t.co/ssm8AMKhfE
