Sometimes the simplest solutions are found by using whatever we have in front of us, right now, so when faced with a challenge, take stock of the resources you already have. What's the first thing you could do to take a step closer to creating a solution making the most of what life has dealt you?

We can use the alignment of today’s (8/8/25) #Lion'sGatePortal to increase the #power behind our words and manifest our wishes.

How would you summarise what you want in one word? Mine is #Legacy and represents my dream of publishing my 1st novel. What will be your power word for 2025?

My daily poem is today inspired by a beautiful rendition of My Way by Giovanni Pernice and Anton du Beke at their Together Again tour finale this week. Sung in both English and Italian it was a true reminder that unconditional love is supporting others to overcome challenges their own way.

“You have to find what sparks a light in you so that you in your own way can illuminate the world.”

With love and light in these times of chaos.

I love to support my fellow writers with a heart or thoughtful comment. It all helps drive the algorithms for folk. If you have a moment, could you have a scroll through my posts and like/comment/follow? That would be amazing. Thank you. 💃🎭💻

I am a writer. A published author. I write because I have stories burning to be told, in my own words, in my own way. Writing is my life. #writingcommunity
If this all feels too much to fight, start small. Take "aspiring writer" out of your bio and replace it with "writer." Stop saying things like "I don't have a proper job." Support creators; translators; illustrators. Boycott AI generated junk.
We are many. They are few. And we have the words.

Often times, writers (myself included) can feel that we are unheard. We write our hearts out and offer up our heartfelt thoughts like our first-born children to be well-received by agents and publishers. .....

Wishing everyone who works on and offstage a Happy World Theatre Day. Happy memories of acting in many productions, as well as working backstage. Nowadays writing!

We are a very theatrical family and this was a rare occasion when we all acted together a few years ago.  🎭

Deep breath, hit SEND and let go! My debut speculative fiction novel query has been sent out to prospective literary agents. Big step - equal measures of proud, excited and nervous! Wish me luck. #writerscommunity. Not resting on my laurels. The hard work continues... :)

It’s important to remember that many middle class women of a certain age grew up as working class girls who were, and are, fierce as fuck. With long memories.
