My grandma said to me that we can be blessed with money or blessed with soul …and we never run out of soul. I have a thousand gems like that from her and that makes me feel blessed more than anything ✨

I have become a tad obsessed as I feared. After planning the tale for thirty years and writing for six, I must do the ending justice. I’ll come out the other side like Gollum, having been curled in a chair with little food, water, and sunlight 😊 Have a lovely weekend 💙📚 mybook.to/Highbrook (KU)

Good morning. This weekend was exciting as thirty people downloaded Little Robin for free. Watching the little graph rise was just thrilling. Back to the third part of Highbrook on the North York Moors now, and the dark and twisting lives of the inhabitants. Have a lovely week ✨😊✨ #histfic

A warm hello from Brontë Country. The brooding landscape lives up to its reputation beautifully here. You can feel the atmosphere on the moorland, especially this time of year. Wishing you a cosy weekend 😊💙📚

Free on KDP 12-16 Feb inclusive. Great loves are not only romantic. Little Robin also tells the story of found family and friendship after making a mistake. Set in Victorian Brontë Country, this is not the simple little love story you might think. Have a good day #Booksky mybook.to/LittleRobin

I’m only one of millions, but my personal target is to reach double figures for rev’s for my books this year. It’s been two years of the Women of Old Yorkshire collection and if you have KU, it would be so lovely if you considered the eight gritty tales of love 🤗 womenofoldyorkshire.com #histfic

I see frost and snow as a natural warning to stay inside whenever possible, light a fire, and read a book. Hygge is perhaps the best medicine we have. Hope you have s good day #booksky ✨😊✨

My latest #BookReview THE LAST DAYS OF KIRA MULLAN By @niccifrench.bsky.social ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ A gritty, turbulent read. French skillfully captures how many women feel when dealing with arrogant and controlling men. Full review at: www.facebook.com/raeradfordreads #Books #BookSky

I like slow-living, peace, kindness, and calm. Oh, and I know the Oxford comma is trendy, but I have always used it. Does that make me trendy in my old age, I wonder? Wishing you a lovely day ahead. ✨😊✨

Good morning. I’ve been here two months, so still the new girl. I’m searching for book people, to speak our special language. So, if you, by any chance, might be looking for a laidback grandma from England who reads as well as writes, I’m your girl. Wishing you a lovely Sunday ✨👋✨ #booksky
