That was one HELL of a revelation to pull out of the bag 500 pages in!?!
I've devoured these witchy books by the brilliant Juno Dawson. Two out and one to go...I cannot wait for the final installment!?

Brilliant podcast episode from @zoerichardsuk on habit stacking to help move your writing along. Fascinating insight into how to make it easy for your brain to form a habit by being specific in the goal you want to meet open.spotify.com/episode/39O…

Just had the BEST coaching chat with the lovely @under_blue_sky about my novel and feel SO incredibly excited about it again. Lots of work to do, but - oh my - it's shaping up to be the most wonderful story. 🤗
Very grateful to have Stephanie as a #Writing Mentor. 🥰

Writing progress should not just be measured by word count or pages. Research is progress. Working out a plot hole is progress. Having inspiration or a breakthrough is progress. Writing a single line? Progress.
Don't beat yourself up. You're doing great!

Absolutely dire sales this week - not sure if it’s Twitter or whatever it’s called now, or it’s the end of the month, or everyone is just too down in the dumps (quite rightly) but currently have just 2 orders to go to the Post Office tomorrow. Not sure it’s ever been this bad 😟 – at Yorkshire and The Humber, England

Worried about being a ‘mature’ writer trying to get published?
Don’t be…#amwriting
1/ I wasn’t published until my fifties. And my breakout book I Am Watching You (1.3 million sales) came at age 58.
I’m now a proud author in my sixties who’s realised something important…

Time is money. If it takes twice as long to do something you earn half as much. This is the brutal fact at the heart of Brexit.
Let’s "Brexit" a £12.99 paperback, blow by blow, and see what difference leaving the single market has made.

A huge double privilege to be able to present at #vSHP23 with @PartitionGroup's @MrsURizvi @pepe_hart about teaching Partition, and to bring the stories of three incredible people in Karam Singh Hamdard, Khurshid Begum and Haroon Ahmed to a wider audience.
