It really is time we lost the term 'disorder' when describing autism/ADHD etc. It leads to faulty reasoning & prejudice. Neurodivergence is just a different cognitive makeup. It'd be like saying someone with fair hair who burns more easily has a 'skin disorder'. We don't; we just say it's genetics.

Our next guest will be the wonderful Stephanie Burgis! @stephanieburgis.bsky.social has books for adults, books for kids & dragons galore! Her latest adult book, Wooing The Witch Queen is a villainous romantasy of a helpless prince seeking shelter with the wicked sorceress! Also there's a library.

Movie you’ve watched more than 6 times, using gifs. (“Hard mode” = no Star Wars, Star Trek, or LOTR) Well OBVIOUSLY it has to be

I think we can all agree that I'm officially HOPELESS at keeping up with Bluesky, but I'm still here, kind of! Over the past few months I've been working on 2 new WIPs, completed another project with Fiction Express, delivered a workshop to c.100 people at the @writingeastmidlands.com conference…

Really disturbed by an ad I've just seen for a 'service' promising a pathway to publishing run by someone whose website is littered with spelling errors. The books on their site have AI covers and blurbs, maybe the content too, who knows. I am not against indie publishing but this grift is not cool.

In January 2021, during the third national lockdown, I pulled into this deserted pub car park to turn the van round and found a lamppost and a bin engaged in lively conversation while they thought no one was looking. Incredible.

Excited to share that my story THE GHOSTS OF HOLLY HALL is being launched this Friday with Fiction Express! Every week, readers will vote for where they want the story to go next. And isn't the cover great? My MC, Lauren, has mild cerebral palsy like I do – I'm thrilled this has been represented!

Been a bit quiet on here because of life/work stuff, but popping up to wish everyone a Merry Christmas/holiday season and a Happy New Year! Auburn has already been at the gin, as you can see… 😂

It's #BookSky #BookAdvent Day 4! Today I'm sharing the 10th anniversary edition of STARRING KITTY by @keris.bsky.social, a heartwarming LGBT+ teenage romance about Kitty, who is falling for Dylan, the girl with the purpley-red hair…but Dylan wants to be more than Kitty's secret. What will Kitty do?

Today involved getting up early to do some writing (yay!) but also getting a MASSIVE filling redone and the left half of my face being completely numb for 4 hours afterwards (boo). I'm quite tired now...

Reposting for the evening (or perhaps it's morning where you are, or somewhere in between!) crowd. A stunning collection from a brilliant poet that's well worth a read. 🖤 #BookSky #BookAdvent

#BookSky #BookAdvent Day 3! Here is the wonderful SURRENDER, a poetry collection by the equally wonderful Cathy Grindrod, which explores how we connect and disconnect with the past, place, work, nature, the animal world and ultimately, with others. Available from @fiveleavesbooks.bsky.social 🍃📚

For day 2 of my #BookSky #BookAdvent I'm sharing the twisty & brilliant DARK ISLAND by @spacemandan13.bsky.social! Midwinter in Orkney. ND journalist Freya has returned to her childhood home, only for her life to be turned upside down when human remains are uncovered & dark secrets are revealed… ☠️

Rather than the town square, treat BlueSky like your favourite bar, pub or community. Just like you would avoid or silence snarky, argumentative fascist baiters, avoid them here. Block and don’t engage. Move on to the next cool interesting person. The trolls will eventually leave. Cheers!

Happy December, Bluesky! Every day this month I'm going to try and share a book (fic, non-fic, poetry) I love. A kind of #BookAdvent, if you will.🎄📚 First up: @sheenawriter.bsky.social's MRS HART'S MARRIAGE BUREAU – a gentle, intelligent inter-war romantic comedy, perfect for fans of Dear Mrs Bird.

So much WTAF here. Mind you, it's the Daily Heil, so is anyone surprised? (And just for the record, my husband and I are both not-secretly-at-all AuDHD and sometimes struggle to "read the room", and yet we both find it incredibly easy not to be inappropriate or creepy. Wild, huh! 🙃)

I got horribly tangled up with my WIP's plot yesterday (the "messy middle" is my nemesis!) but thanks to brilliant pals @sheenawriter.bsky.social and @rachelwardbooks.bsky.social it's all sorted now. Just shows how important it is to find like-minded writer friends – thank you, ladies! 🥰

Like my mentor #DavidNash, I make work with long timespans: It’s also the art I’m most drawn to… If that speaks to you too, here’s a starter pack of others engaged in serious noticing - through repetition, return, time series & other forms of slow art… go.bsky.app/V6j8hdS
