Der Kleine Häwelmann (the little Havelman) is a German bedtime story written by Theodor Fontane in 1848. It’s about a boy who uses his night shirt as a sail and his crib as a cart to travel to strange places. That crying moon used to freak me out 😆 #childrensbooks #bizarre #illustration

It’s the last day of the year, and like today #2023 has been so light and so dark, so bright and so exhausting, so blessed… happy #2024 everyone 🥳🥳🥳 #newyear

Honestly, spotting your book in a shop NEVER GETS OLD.

Revisiting an old manuscript and the characters feel like old friends… does anyone else sometimes reread their own writing just to be with those people again? #writing #author #creativewriting

Breastfeeding supposedly saves you £15 a week because you don’t spend money on formula…. What’s not been considered there though is how much you spend on chocolate and cake instead 🍰 🧁 🍫 👶

I’m breastfeeding so I have two modes: “sure, I could eat” and “IF I DON’T EAT RIGHT NOW I’M GOING TO DIE”

Because nothing brings in the festive feeling like an image of Rudolph bleeding out in the snow 😱😱😆 Canadian Christmas card, 1888 #xmas #christmas

I just love it when you dig out a manuscript you haven’t touched in 5 years and two things are true: 1) it’s actually not bad 😃 2) it’s suddenly right on reading trend 🤩 watch this space, folks! #amwriting #crimefiction #writing #author

I feel so seen, especially when I’m on deadline and cleaning the gap under the skirting board with a knitting needle… Which is something only writers do 😆

Sadly, she wasn’t into it… knowing that, the image takes on quite a deeper level of meaning when it comes to what victory is and how it is celebrated.

My third manuscript has received its first rejection… I am floored! After two novels out, I forgot that terrible feeling 😳 Then I remind myself that I had 64 rejections before I first got #published. You have to soldier on! My heart goes out to all the #authors out there querying. Keep at it!

It was around this time four years ago that I got my publishing deal.🤩🤩🤩 I still remember that magic phone call while I was walking past Old Street roundabout. I may have cried… #writing #novels #crimefiction #authors

Scene: changing table, mid afternoon Me: “hey baby, your nappy isn’t even that wet.” Baby: “apologies, let me sort that out for you!” He pees over everything in range. And his range now includes the rug, the open tub of skin cream and his favourite teddy bear 🧸 #motherhood #lovemylife

I’m parenting a baby and my world is very small right now. My child is small, my walks are small, my dreams are small and interrupted. But sometimes a focus on the small things puts the big things in perspective. Here’s a ladybird in #Glasgow 🐞 😍 #motherhood

This was a house and is now a wall… life after life. Spotted in #Glasgow. Was part of an iron foundry, apparently, which was in use until the 60s. #history #stories #architecture

Dangit, life is getting in the way, meaning no time for writing. I don't feel like a whole person if I can't write or at least do a little editing! If you have a way to maintain your sanity in this situation, I'd love to hear it. #WritingCommunity #writing
