Michael said this about The Jacobites Plight, book 2 in The Jacobite Trilogy: ‘Your themes are wider and more interesting by having a large, diverse, cast who are interested in love, money and status and not in fighting battles.’ @bloodhoundbooks.bsky.social

Who could forget the financial crash of 2008? Certainly not Alice, who endured the simmering collapse of world finance as the background to her tumultuous personal life. @bloodhoundbooks.bsky.social

Honoured to see my book ‘Almost Boys’ (under the author name Isobel Ross) included in the first newsletter from Scotland’s ACEs Action Community. I hope my story can make a contribution to spreading the word about the importance of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES) to our future well-being.

Two books came out in April which have an important focus on girls' and women's experiences. There is much more to be done on expanding the voices heard but I feel encouraged that this is happening.

I love talking about the Rupture-Repair Cycle. It helps parents relax. You do not need to be in constant sync with your child. This 2024 article underlines that point. Quote: "The flow of connection, disconnection & reconnection that offers an ideal mixture." www.bbc.co.uk/future/artic...

Why parents shouldn't always be 'in sync' with their children
Parents are often advised to be constantly attuned to their children and to respond to their every need. But is this always the right approach?

I think it is really really hard for most of us to imagine that the daily events of our infancy shape who we are in our adulthood. We just can't imagine that it matters that much. And yet...it does. Infancy matters. Practical take-away: Pay attention to babies' emotions.

This morning I was told that my daily use of social media last week was three hours a day. The only way forward is to assume they’re lying.

‘Alice annoys me, she’s so passive.’ If you’ve lived with coercive control, you’ll know why.

Everyone starts off thinking they want writing advice but slowly finds out what they're really looking for is writing _confidence_ to get in the chair and do the work.
