The giant #daisies from some #wildflower seeds I planted last year have been thriving in the sunny, dry weather over the past few weeks. They are up to my waist as they face up to the sun. And the #buttercups closer to the ground are pretty beautiful too.

I took a lovely #StetWalk or two in Oxford on Tuesday and Wednesday, visiting my son. He brought us around the deer park at Magdalen College. It was beautiful in the sunshine.

I’m doing some advance reading before a new #editing job. The office manager is supervising and a loud robin is declaring his reign over the garden from a telephone wire. #freelancelife

The April sunshine in my #garden brought the bees to this shrub. A berberis?

I was #proofreading my #garden today, under feline supervision and with a #reading break. I have found that idea more appealing than #weeding, so it’s what I tell myself I’m going to do.

The value of #Mayo County Library and the national interlibrary loan system. I’ve just finished one book I requested and am about to start another. #library #reading #books

A canal #StetWalk on a cold but bright day near Longwood, Co. Meath. Always a nice way to break a journey.

The sun came out! I had a lovely #StetWalk at Enniscrone, next stop the Hebrides.

We have a #StetWalk, but do we have a #StetRead? I couldn’t wait till the end of my working day to finish this book by @andreamara.bsky.social. Such a clever story, with many twists and turns.

I missed a #StetWalk yesterday – a strong wind with horizontal sleet did not entice me out of my office. But all week I wrapped up and enjoyed the weather. The night skies were amazing.

Today I didn’t even see my desk, but I’ll call this little walk during a detour on a drive a #StetWalk anyway. Glencar, Co. Leitrim, close to Ben Bulben, Co. Sligo.

It’s a while since I felt such tension in moving from the genre of a book I’ve just finished to that of one I’m about to start. It’s probably a while since I put one down and picked another up in one sitting, though. #books #reading

Not sure people realise how hard it's been recently for artists to survive, or how deeply appreciated every single order is. If you can't buy something, it makes a huge difference just to share our work. If you can't share our work, a little sacrifice to the Old Gods on our behalf means a lot, too 💜

The Nat Literacy Trust survey on Reading for Pleasure shows a big dip! 4 recommendations (my paraphrase): 1. Prioritise reading not as a means of evaluation 2.Include texts that resonate with children 3. Make time for independent reading 4. Make reading a 'social' not just an individual thing. 1/
