Apparently, I am a bit ‘literary’ and a bit ‘commercial’... but it’s the book world that likes labels, not authors. I have stories to tell. End of. #fridaymorning #WritingCommunity #writerslife #amwriting #author #books #creative #storytelling

How did this beaut pass me by? Books, books, books - too many new gems to read, too many old gems to re-read - what a never-ending treasure trove. What joy. #Books #MondayMotivation #readingworld #Writer #readingcommunity #wellness #joy

“One can only get so much into a story; there is always sacrifice. One has to leave out what one knows & longs to use…it’s always a kind of race, to get in as much as one can before it disappears.” Katherine Mansfield knew a thing or two. #writingtips #writing #Writer #Creative

7 hours in A&E yesterday, and now more hours queuing for a prescription (because the pharmacy shut last night). But I have met with nothing but KINDNESS & PROFESSIONALISM. So grateful for that, and for being a writer and not a doctor. #tuesdayvibe #NHS #Well #writerslife #Writer

“Do other artists feel as I do, the driving necessity - the crying need?…To write something that will be worthy of that rising moon, that pale light. To be ‘simple’ enough?” Katherine Mansfield. #ThursdayMotivation #InspirationalQuotes #Writing #WritingCommunity #Creative

Revising my 4th novel for republication…: The jacket may be dated, but the contents are gripping - even for the author! Some themes are timeless. #TuesdayFeeling #book #author #relationships #storytelling #Creative

Confession: I am a crossword addict. That’s why I picked up this book. But it is also a gem of a memoir about why Sandy Balfour came to England, and never left… The power of words knows no bounds. #MondayMotivation #books #Writing #memoir #cruciverbalist #words #Wellness #author

@kctorawrites It's so hard to 'break the rules' isn't it?! But I do occasionally do it... Putting 'un-huddled' might even get it past the dictionary-test!

I love the mighty power of the mini exclamation mark, always on on hand for: Surprise! Hilarity! Exaggeration! Shouty-ness! Too many can be ruinous: I love you!!!!!!!!!!! But not as bad as one in the wrong place: He died! #wednesdaythought #Writer #WritingCommunity #writingtips

A certain recent televised ceremony reminded me of the importance of ‘costume-choice’… for novelists. Characters’ clothes matter as much as their words & actions - camouflage or revelation - they are a vital writerly tool. #tuesdaymotivations #writingtips #Writer #plot #writing
