Avid reader, story maker-upper who more than anything wants to be a writer when she grows up! Attributes all of her best work to her cat, who is also her editor.
‘Without Moomintroll knowing a thing about it, at that moment his velvet skin decided to start growing woollier. It decided to become, by and by, a coat of fur for winter use. That would take some time, but at least the decision was made. And that’s always a good thing.’ #writing #writingcommunity

Lines I am liking today: ‘Every writer is at least two beings: the one who lives, and the one who writes. Every question-and-answer session at a book event is an illusion; it’s the one doing the living, not the one doing the writing, who is present on such occasions.’ #writing #writingcommunity

A new sleeping on his face pose. The Teddy Tiger does seem to like sleeping with his head lower than his body, his brother used to do the same. Is he a bat or a cat? 🦇🐈

Lines I am liking today: ‘The body double appears as soon as you start writing. How can it be otherwise? There’s the daily you, and then there’s the other person who does the actual writing. They aren’t the same.
But in my case, there are more than two. There are lots.’ #writing #WritingCommunity

Lines I am liking today: ‘Longmas should be treated with caution: only a very small number develop bonds with humans.

Was lucky enough to get to see a starling murmuration at Newport Wetlands this afternoon. Utterly beautiful - like witnessing a dance in the sky. #murmuration #newportwetlands #starlings

Lines I am liking today: ‘Before, it was a wide-open mouth with no teeth, from which the tongue of crashing waters, a hundred tiny shine-shine horses, come galloping down to the river below.

The Teddy Tiger isn't having a good day. All day visit to the university of Bristol vets to try and find out what is causing the foot infection he has had for over five months.
Anxious two week wait now to get back the biopsy results and pray it isn't cancer. #cats #cat #catlover #catlovers #catlife
