Happy book birthday to @hazelhitchins.bsky.social and Babs & Aggie: The Good, The Bad and The Vegan.

Driving through Snowdonia and Brecon Beacons back to Cardiff last week made me want to write about mountains. It’ll be easy to plop the romance I’m writing someplace more rugged, right? RIGHT?! 😂🙈

I have some time to kill before meeting my friends so why not spend some time in the massive reading rooms at the British Library eh? So much space and light and quiet with just a bit of ambient noise so you don’t feel creeped out… perfect.
