@amandapalmer It’s not just missing the person you lost, it’s never knowing who they could have become and who you might have been if they were still here

[Nicole C. Skipper @tatteredbook]

@amandapalmer I’m caught in a similar wave right now. My brother took his own life almost 8 years ago and sometimes the realisation that he’s dead still feels like a shock. I find the waves are further apart now but when they hit it feels like I’m drowning.

@writementor Thank you! 😊 🤞

[Nicole C. Skipper @tatteredbook]

Scrolling this morning I saw a tweet about @writementor Children's Novel Award. 10 minutes later I decided to enter. Have just clicked submit after frantically editing my synopsis. It's been quite the Sunday! 😅

Writer pals, if like me you had no idea this was a thing get on it!

[WriteMentor @writementor]

We are entering the final few hours to enter our 2021 Children's Novel and Picture Book awards!

Hands up if you've procrastinated for two months and you plan to enter in classic, fashionably (almost) late style!😂
