So looking forward to reading this new one from @authorpetermay.bsky.social Does anyone else suffer from being so excited to start a new book by a fav author and then not want to finish it as it will be over? #favauthors #scottish #finmacleodseries #crimefiction

This is Frankie (named for one of my fav singers, Sinatra). Today I rode 50km. This is how I clear my head when I’m working on a new writing project and have the day off work…and the kids are at school :) #motivation #writing
