Important information for anyone considering buying one of my books: Special dragon letter openers aren’t essential... but they are definitely recommended. 😄🐉

12 January 1871 - Kilvert has a puzzling encounter with a Frenchman in a photograph shop: "I met Sam... and he explained the mystery of the shop in the Arcade. The man is notorious for selling obscene French photographs." #KilvertsLockdownDiary never a dull moment for Kilvert!

We'll be picking up on #KilvertsLockdownDiary again starting tomorrow! Follow us as we follow in this fascinating man's footsteps. Meanwhile, work on Hay Castle continues, and we understand that some of the roof tiles may be reinstated from next week! Pic (c) @hayonwyewebsite

I get so excited about Epiphany. I know for many people it's just another day, but for me there's something so... well, MAGICAL about a feast that celebrates the vision quest of a fellowship of mysterious wizards

16 November 1870 - "Last night the waning moon shone bright and cold in the East and I had a horrible dream that I was married to Mrs Danzey and living as curate at Gwythian. I woke up in a cold sweat." He's back! #KilvertsLockdownDiary

Men have spent centuries looking for the mark of a witch as obscene excuse to humiliate, to grope. They were always too ignorant to see that the true mark of a witch is a refusal to accept their authority. – Faith Dunmort, Barrow wisdom Coven, 1974 #WitchWednesday

@MElliott57 That’s a lovely spot.

10 September 1870 - "We all left Newbridge for Clyro at 12.20. At Llechrhyd I saw Mary Bevan on the platform waiting to get into our train.... At Three Cocks she took Mr. Venables aside and told him that a dreadful calamity had happened..." #KilvertsLockdownDiary read more tmrw!

The witch knows the old stipulations – don’t pick blackberries after Michaelmas for the Devil has pissed on them – and laughs that her neighbours are more superstitious than she. She can taste sweetness with more than her tongue. – #EmilyBanting, 1981 #WitchWednesday

Apparently, on Wednesday, this will be a cafe. I am soooo tired.

@cultauthor I spent decades ‘investigating’ the paranormal, trying to explain it, until I finally realised that the story is the important thing. That’s what I concentrate on now - storytelling. Your article resonates with me. (Some great lyrical language, too!)
