Stepping back to move forward

Life is like chess. You don’t win by moving forward every time. Sometimes stepping sideways or pausing lets you return stronger. I’m logging off until January to give my books the focus they deserve. See you in the new year with fresh words.

“All the world’s a stage…”
Like a chessboard, life unfolds in strategy and story. Every move matters, every role shifts. Some days we’re pawns. Other days, queens. Always players in the grand game.

Which chess piece are you today?

Fiction isn't always escape – sometimes it's a confession. Stories: the safe place for truths too heavy to carry in daylight.

Friday writing quote
The reminder we all need: you don’t need to know the ending before you begin. Just keep the lights on and move forward.

A daily reminder
Life's greatest work is becoming ourselves. Some reminders are worth carrying with us always.

Before returning to my series on Pompeii, I took a short detour through the rain.

Renoir’s "The Umbrellas" has always been one of my favourites: the half-told stories, the echoes of a city beneath clouded skies, the smell of the rain.

I wrote about it: snlindsi.substack.com

PS. Do you love rain?

Writing advice:
This quote by Chekhov still gives me goosebumps.
The power of detail. The magic of restraint.

“My candle burns at both ends…” feels a bit too personal today.

Burning bright doesn’t mean burning out, but some Mondays I teeter on the edge. Here's to finding the balance between fire and rest.

What keeps your creative candle lit?

Currently writing a scene where secrets are exchanged in an old brass lift. It’s going suspiciously well. ✍️

Creative Burnout & Renewal

If you’re tired, you’re not failing. You’re just human. Pause, breathe, write again later.

The truest thing I ever wrote was hidden in a story I made up. Isn't that wild?

On writing quietly:

Here’s to the quiet writers. The ones who don’t shout to be seen. The ones who build beautiful things in silence, with a little bit of hope and trust. I believe if I show up, the Muse will show up too.

Writer’s Corner
Monday’s writing ritual: strong coffee, a messy draft, and the wild hope that today the muse shows up in tweed and boots.

What does your Monday muse look like?

A Late Salute to the War Horse
I just missed #InternationalHorseDay, but "War Horse" by Michael Morpurgo deserves a mention. One of the most powerful stories about animals in war — loyal, brave, and heartbreaking.
To the horses who carried more than soldiers.

Just finished Agatha Christie: An Elusive Woman by Lucy Worsley.
Turns out, the Queen of Crime had a few secrets of her own… 👀

🌐 Bluesky (short, butterfly & story vibes):
Happy World Chocolate Day

Chocolates like stories…
sweet, fleeting, whimsical as butterflies.
Today’s box fluttered with fire, citrus, and cherry light.

"A room without books is like a body without a soul." – Cicero

I’ve read this quote a hundred times, but today it settled differently.
I can’t feel at home in a space without books. They are the soul.

“To be seen clearly is to be known.
And to be known is to be vulnerable.”

As someone who’s very private, writing about my inner world – even gently – can feel like standing in a storm without a coat.

Do you ever feel this tension too?

This is the calico cat in question.
Yes, she’s wearing a hat.
No, she’s not giving interviews.

She read my Substack post about cats, coffee, books & fashion and decided to model it.
