New #poem of excess … “we have eaten of the oysters the rich man said
 we demolished tureens of crabs and supped

Another half a bucket of sweet peppers & chillies harvested today. I feel a third batch of hot pepper jelly is required. As the forecast for tomorrow is for several hours of rain I forsee chopping on the cards. This time in addition to apple I may add some quince for floral note

A tale of two households. Comforting tuna mornay at home, which we will eat again tonight, while apparently some very hungry guests and BBQs at daughter's. #food #foodsky 🍜
side view of a casserole dish partly full of tuna mornay with peas, corn, onions, garlic, parsley and a cheesy white sauce, topped with the remainder of some cornflakes. Parsley behind. An overhead view of a large bowl piled with steak, chicken, roast potatoes, some kind of rice salad and a mango and avocado bacon salad with butter lettuce

Today's apple is dual purpose Newton Wonder. Discovered c 1870 by innkeeper Mr Taylor growing in the hedge near The Hardinge Arms, King's Newton, Derbyshire. Transplanted into his garden; the original tree survived until 1940. Crisp & fruity dessert apple. Cooks to creamy purée. 🍎🍏

For Kandinsky, colour and psyche were very much connected. It’s believed he had chromosthesia, a form of synesthesia, where he saw colours in music, and heard sound, volume and tone in his paintings. ...

Unfortunately writing’s a lonely business. The only people I think worth sharing with are a trusted reader or good editor, and even then, what you’re creating is an evolving thing, sensitive to criticism. Best to let it evolve, then edit. Sorry if not relevant, just talking off the top of my head!!

I don’t workshop any more for that reason. Validation is a different question. I don’t know what you’ve done or are doing but a major goal I had was to build cred through publication in literary journals. That gives validation to your WIP. It’s a “building” you can quote in your credits. Win win.

Not exactly sure what you’re asking but here goes. Depends on the medium. My career was writing, but when it comes to personal writing (fiction, non-fiction, poetry) I don’t talk about WIP except with a trusted writing pro. Most ppl don’t get it or want to tell you what to do or how they’d do it.
