Congrats to my friend @susieisnothere.bsky.social (who is the kindest, most generous soul, and a constant source of encouragement) and to Lisa Moore and Jack Whelan. Two devastatingly beautiful books. Thank you for waking us up, you are all an inspiration.❤️

My only regret is not putting two sausage rolls in the fridge to eat on the morning after my 50th birthday party. Other than that #Iregretnothing #piaffeels
