I am so excited to reveal the cover of my debut novel, which is due for re-release by Between the Lines Publishing on June 18th! I just love what the artist has done with this.
Great afternoon of storytelling for children as part of @clevedonlitfest today. 4th April sees the opening of the LitFest writing competitions - short stories for N. Somerset only, but poetry open nationally. Visit clevedonlitfest.org.uk for details.
FATE OR COINCIDENCE? jottingjax.wordpress.com/2024/03/20/fat…
Of course they have. Like those 40 new hospitals, these new medical school places only exist to disguise a systematic, deliberate, 14 year assault on a one great, now savaged, institution 😔 #NHS 💙
Thanks, Tim, for publishing my dribble (50-words) today on fiftywordstories.com Look for "Isolation Ward", a creative microfiction based on memories in "Remnants of War" by my sister, Bonnie Meekums and me, pub 2021. The context is the polio epidemic of the 1950s. #amwriting

Happy #publicationday to @JacquiAnnC! 🎊 Today we're publishing the #JanPearce boxset of three thrilling detective stories in one. She specialises in missing persons. But she still can't find her son... Grab the #boxset today: geni.us/JanPearce
OMG! I just got the best news! @EllipsisZine will publish my #flashfiction 'Scientist transforms spinach leaves into beating human heart tissue after coming up with the idea during lunch' on August 23rd! Such an honour. Pinch me.
Had a great day @clevedonlitfest yesterday, meeting writers, learning about cover art, and buying… Even invited to read some of my poetry to a room full of interested, encouraging people. Loved the buzz about the place! More today…

My heart goes out to those women to whom Nicola Sturgeon said "Sorry" today. So many like my Maggie in "Shadows of Time" for whom it's too late.
Ch4's last episode of "The Piano" can't fail to touch hearts. So much talent must be hidden, undiscovered, but four young people made magic, despite all they had to cope with in their lives. Long may there be pianos in public places...

@Mslexia Coffee. A sea view. And a few pages of words doing the same on the screen as they did when they were in my head.
@Mslexia Sitting on a balcony, looking at the sea. It’s hot but not too hot. I’ve a straw hat and as much tea and biscuits as I want. At lunchtime someone reminds me to eat, brings fruit salad. A glass of sharp white wine appears at 6. I’ve written all day. This has never happened.

Thank you @JohannaTC for this review of #BREATHTAKING. And yes, this is exactly it - ordinary people, in the darkest of circumstances, acting with courage, kindness & light. For me, it was the most breathtaking thing of all. #NHS 💙 thetimes.co.uk/article/1a48bb…
I've discovered my 20-year-old daughter doesn’t know what a card catalogue is and now I’m wondering was the 20th century 400 years ago?
@doctor_oxford @ITV @DailyMailUK @GBNEWS Stay strong. Don't read too many comments. Breathtaking had been a huge hit. It validated so many of our (NHS staff) experiences and showed the public just what was happening. Some can't handle the truth because it destroys their own nasty narratives.
My heartfelt thanks to everyone who braved watching #BREATHTAKING, who commented, who shared their own experiences, who chose not to look away. Here are my reflections on the astonishing public response to the series - available on @ITVX now 💙 theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
