I’ve made it back from Swansea in one piece, despite engineering works on the line (and an adorable but bored toddler who thought I was a pirate with my trilby on!).My sister made it to graduation. Even my parents made it, though it was a close thing! I have some gorgeous photos of Swansea bay, [...]
There’s no Motivation Monday this week because I haven’t spent enough time online to find any interesting links. Turns out making potato salad for 80 people takes a little while!

Loose Id got back to me about the selkie story a couple of days ago. They said they really liked it, but it’s not quite what they’re looking for. However, with a rewrite they’d love to see it again. There’s no major changes, though I think I’m going to include a new scene, and I’m [...]
