Lost on the #malvernhills on morning of 4th November between Wyche Cutting/British Camp - Jack Russell named Murphy. Please look out @MalvHillsTrust @MalvernJogger#malvernjoggers#lostdog

My veins are filled with blood from a family of indie #highstreet shopworkers, stretching back generations. Can't let this be the last. Come see me tomorrow in The Odd Shop in #Ledbury then cross the road to @LedburyBooks. #supportyourlocalhighstreet https://t.co/j5acqWNkda
So mum told me that The Archer's #plasticfree wedding was thwarted at the last minute by a honeymoon paid for on the plastic credit card. Sweet Lord. But so easily avoided #Ambridge - Open a @triodosuk bank account for a vegetable starch 'plastic' bank card. #thearchers
"...poke at the bruise, pick at the scab, see what is underneath. [crime fans] worry... but would rather go outside than hide inside pretending everything is fine."
Crime writing as immersion therapy? by @eb_bartels https://t.co/8RxVGWpcY3 via @CatapultStory#anxietyproblems
@CatapultStory @eb_bartels Interesting. There was a great piece in the Observer a few weeks ago about how writing fiction I general has the same effect. I also just set up a 'creative writing and reading aloud for writers with Anxiety, Panic Disorder or shyness' in my town. We're all at it!
If you read one thing today, choose this by @mgcrotty. An articulate, approachable, so-very-true exploration of how literary canons & subconscious reading habits reflect some sordid social conditioning about female stories & emotions.

@matthaig1 That DJ on BBC Radio 2 in the afternoon (think she's called Vanessa) is literally hosting a discussion about whether climate change is real or is it just hot - cos it was very cold this past winter so that must disprove climate change! Sweet lord I despair
Crop of my favourite scratcy, sketchy low-fi #drypoint#etching I made in the church basement.
Themes: The politics of 1080 poison / TV fandom / fictionalising #climatechange for ironic sensationalist effect / The compromised nature of #visualart as a career.

Ottessa Moshfegh's new novel about a girl who tries to sleep for a year to deal with melancholy sounds like me - maybe I should read it & find out what happens next. Also, the @NYerFiction ep where Ottessa read's Sheila Heti's 'My Life Is A Joke' is TOP. https://t.co/Bv8hdvZylh
About half done working on a #zine about the things that keep my brain sparkling with fresh, oxygenated blood. ❤ A loveletter to the music & the bands & to 2009 & to the outback lands & the trees & the renegades of #DIY 👊 #illustration#monoprint#inkdrawing
Last day to send a little message to Michael Gove & @DefraGovUK asking for a more powerful 'green' watchdog to regulate environmental impacts of #Brexit (their current proposal lacks power), & a new Environment Act which can legislate that 'polluters pay' https://t.co/ShvEEPoIeX
Last day to respond to @DefraGovUK’s consultation on protecting and restoring our natural world. Have your voice heard by completing our e-action: https://t.co/kEJIHkx1Z4 #EnvironmentAct#actnow
With all this talk of #socialprescribing of arts for health, I have to ask... as an underpaid arts facilitator & illustrator who's run health & community art projects, what about the health of artists? Art gotta keep us healthy too! #artshealthwellbeing https://t.co/2PFDBE1fQ5
@ace_national Ooh I know the answer. But... if artists aren't offered fair pay (if at all) then the financial worries contribute to bad wellbeing, & in my case over time a spike in my mental illness.. & the doc ironically saying 'go to an art class!' Art has to look after the artists too!
@HfdsCouncil The proposed changes of parking outside market house, removal of loading bay. And turning Bye Street to cycles and pedestrians only. Many thanks
This comic by @sawdustbear about speaking and loving with the language of food! So wholesome, so good. #illustration : https://t.co/EWwPT99YyX via @CatapultStory
