As an article said, my novels are often about ‘older women looking for fulfilment and, yes love, in a complicated world’. Big fan of animals, and doodles.

The Popcorn Lady On The Bus I once sat beside a very smartly-dressed middle-aged woman on a bus.She was eating a big bag of popcorn,devouring it actually,she was shoving her hand right into the bottom of the bag and munching and crunching with flamboyant zeal. www.gracewynnejones.com/the-popcorn-...

Resting is not a waste of time. It's an investment in well-being. Relaxing is not a sign of laziness. It's a source of energy. Breaks are not a distraction. They're a chance to refocus attention. Play is not a frivolous activity. It's a path to connection and creativity.

Good news for the uncontacted Piripkura people in Brazil! A Brazilian Court ordered that anyone in the Piripkura territory illegally should be removed. It’s great news, because invaders are one of the biggest threats to the uncontacted people.

An entire life spent in a barren tank just to feed luxury markets. The science is clear: octopus farming cannot meet animal welfare needs. It would empty our oceans. And it is not needed to feed the world. ️✍️ Help stop octopus farms: bit.ly/4hsdaE1
An octopus sits on a bed of marine vegetation underwater, with the text "Keep Them Wild" in bold yellow at the top. The logo "END IT" is displayed in the bottom corner.

To end factory farming, we need to be eating more plants. Swipe through for some of the benefits of adding more plants to your plate 👉 #WorldVegetarianDay
A green background features a white circle with text reading, "Why you should eat more plants this World Vegetarian Day." A fork holds a piece of broccoli at the top, and three carrots with green tops are positioned at the bottom left. Greenhouse gas emissions chart for six diets: High Meat Eater (7.19 kg), Medium Meat Eater (5.63 kg), Low Meat Eater (4.67 kg), Fish Eater (3.91 kg), Vegetarian (3.81 kg), Vegan (2.89 kg) in terms of CO2 equivalents per day per person. Text below highlights that the livestock sector contributes to 14.5% of human-induced greenhouse gases, and reducing meat and dairy consumption can lower emissions.Infographic showing how 100 calories of grains fed to animals result in humans receiving only 3-25 calories in meat. Illustrations of grains, a chicken, a pig, and a cow are depicted. Text highlights global grain waste, noting the UK uses over half its grain for animal feed, wasting 8.3 million tonnes—more than the UK's 6.4 million tonnes of household food waste. Infographic showing capsules with silhouettes of a chicken, cow, and pig. Text states, "Globally, around 70% of all antimicrobials are used in farm animals." Additional text discusses dependency on antimicrobials in industrial livestock production due to poor conditions.
