Turner has celebrity status in Edinburgh this month. Dublin watercolour collection attracting 1000s of people queuing for hours. Magnificent!😍. His 1834 oil was in RA beside contemporary, now forgotten, Scottish portraitist Christina Robertson. Last day for 99p e-book about her life. amzn.to/4f7o5ir
Christina Robertson’s portrait of Lady Rolle in ermine at Westminster Abbey for William IV Coronation. Looking back over her shoulder, a pose that became Christina’s signature style. RA 307 in 1834J.M.W Turner from V&A Collection. St Michael’s Mount Cornwall. Ships, fishing boats and fishing folk Royal Academy exhibit 317 in 1834

What was it? It took me 15 years to persevere with Wolf Hall - a masterclass and one of my favourite books.

The Mekong River in Laos is surrounded be hills. Happy to have glimpsed an elephant taking his morning dip then this cave full of thousands of Budhas was cool

Tree adds more drama to this Thai side Mekong view - gorgeous! 😎 Think there are 2 hornet nests in the tree though - SE Asian hornet experiences did not go well 😬 🐝

Singapore is a special place for me. We lived in Vietnam in the early 1990s when it was both beautiful and short on good hospital care. Lucky to deliver my first baby here 32 years ago. My soul is happy in 27 degrees at night. Love Asian food 🤩

Even on here you follow back some guy who doesn’t look like a BOT and they are straight to DMs. FFS this is a Scottish writing almost Grannie. I don’t want unsolicited help with my book and my interactions depend on you saying something interesting here 🤨 🙄

Of course 🙄 Planning the 5 writers I’ve read 5+ books by and both you and @alisonbelsham.bsky.social qualify 🫂 I read books by friends but more than 5 is dedication 🤣 At my age having read a lot of books is probably no surprise 🤷🏻‍♀️

On the 1st of January, the #Curae prize for writer-carers opens for a second time. The demise of twitter is making it harder to get the word out, so do share! thecuraeprize.uk There are around 7 million unpaid carers in the UK alone & Curae shines a light on the role & much more. #carers #writing
