"You must wake & call me early, call me early, mother dear; Tomorrow'll be the happiest time of all the glad new-year, Of all the glad new-year, mother, the maddest, merriest day; For I'm to be Queen o' the May, mother, I'm to be Queen o' the May" Tennyson #MayDay #bookchatweekly

This was one of the first accounts of a Lincolnshire Boggart (sic boggard) that I ever came across. And it's still for me, so powerful. It might be easy to laugh at the dialect, but there's a sense of genuine terror in their words. So scared they were pushing at a 'pull' door.

Good morning- Late 18th c #unpicked #homespun #linen #bodice #silk thread #embroidery detail from my study collection #beautyinsmallthings
Working at a big (shall remain nameless) online retailer I did everything from collecting the chairman's drycleaning to scrubbing toilets to being the "chick" who brought drinks to meeting rooms full of rich men. Now I pass it on my way to a job I love. I've earned the smug smile
I’m a very lucky girl. 25 years ago I was sitting in a crowded pub in York trying to explain my concept for a book to a group of friends and telling them how I would get published by one of the big houses. Now I’m on a train off to discuss my next FOUR books!! Better get writing!
@hauntedohiobook St Margaret seems the more likely
Every now and again I get a reader's letter that makes this whole writing lark seem worthwhile. This one arrived on Wednesday.
I woke up singing Emily Dickinson poems to the tune of Gilligan’s Island 🏝️ 🎶 Because I could not stop for Death, he kindly stopped for me🎶 If you know the song, now you’re singing it, too You’re welcome 💀
