Living the dream 😅 Premier Inn breakfast in my jammies after being woken by the fire alarm. The restaurant is separate so instead of waiting outside everyone’s in here in an assortment clothes they hastily pulled on. Quite a nice atmosphere!

I’m a lover of soundtracks. They inspire a lot of my work. But when I want to bask in music for musics sake, nothing beats Vaughan Williams. - Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis - The Lark Ascending - Five Variations of “Dives and Lazarus”

You may or may not realise this, but I want to be a game writer. I’ve already done some, I worked at a game studio for years and did narrative elements for the mobile games they produced, I’ve done courses in narrative design and interactive storytelling, and a couple of years ago… 👇

I stopped posting as many selfies because I stopped wearing make-up every day. It’s hot and I wfh and there’s no need. But what’s that saying about my ability to just be me? So - in an effort to show you my true look, here’s my no-make-up face 😅 hope you’re having a good day! ♥️

A lovely milestone and a lovely comment to match! The novelisation is currently with a publisher 🤞, but the market for grimdark sci-fi is tough right now so if they don’t pick it up I’ll be self-pubbing. You heard it here first! 🔥
