Today’s packing pic: dear flotsam🌊📚!
“Carrion,” Riverwind, pp. 24-25, 1997. Today I’d probably end the poem on “early March wind.” Wind down that need to insert myself, get some final final-word.

Do you keep a book perfect as you read or mess up the binding? I love to bend it back, mold it in my hands and transform the pages as the story moves ahead. #lovetoread

In 1598, Frances Trigge donated the princely sum of £100 to St Wulfram’s Church in Grantham. On Wednesday, I had the opportunity to explore the astonishing Frances Trigge Chained Library, the oldest public library in England. It’s well worth a visit. #LincsConnect #History

Published writer, spending a lot of time playing with words to create new fictional stories as well as reiterating harsh realities of living as a disabled/chronically ill person with mental health issues.
New work always in the making.
Doesn't mince words about ableism or inaccessibility.

Apparently, this is a scold’s bridle … I’ll let you look it up for yourselves so I don’t wind up in hot water! Found it inside the Great Hall at Doddington Hall.
