Sunset as I was coming into York on the train from Manchester this evening.

A red, pink and orange sunset with blue, grey clouds over the black silhouette of a building. Quite beautiful.

A good few years later, King returns to the Overlook, or at least, where it stood, it Billy Summers. And nothing much has changed...

My little beer garden is open! New Relic by Stewart Brewing. Very nice in the late September sunshine. Cheers! @desdelboy.bsky.social

A full pint glass full of the multi coloured can next to it - New Relic IPA. In my garden with a mixture of blue sky and clouds.

What an amazing evening. And to meet @stuhennigan.bsky.social after all these years was wonderful. I can't wait to dive into the world of #Keshed, yet I fear it will ruin me. 💜

The inside cover of Keshed. A written dedication: To Nic, lovely to meet you and thanks so much for coming. Much love, Stu.

Years later, in Billy Summers, King casually mentions the Overlook Hotel...

Me too, Melissa. Me too. I am so happy I became a woman during that decade over the 90s, too. I can't wait to start reading Melissa Auf Der Maur's memoir, Even The Good Girls Will Cry. There's so much I will remember from her experiences with Hole and Smashing Pumpkins.

The turn of a millennium rarely called in a lifetime.
This is a story about the decade that defined me and my generation, 1991 - 2001.
I would never wish for another time to come into my womanhood.

I travelled back in time to 1967 on Sunday night and it was GLORIOUS. The Strange Doors were amazing at Rockstock Festival and for 90 minutes I felt like my true self and *exactly* in the era I was supposed to be in. #SoulKitchen

Got this gorgeous beaded necklace from my sister for my birthday last month and I'm finally wearing it today - I really love it, it's so beautiful, what gorgeous colours and semi-precious stones.

I'm from Yorkshire and even I'm confused about how to pronounce this place. Looks like a Countdown "consonant, consonant, consonant, consonant, vowel, consonant" before they have a go at making *actual words*.

How kind but I won't bother thanks. I don't think there'll be many laughs.

Happy Mother's Day. I'm lucky I got to spend today (some of it, anyway!) with my wonderful grrrls! I miss them every day but they are working so hard at university and I'm so proud of them, and so happy they took some time out to come and see me. I think you can see that in my face. 💜🖤🩷
