Hartlepool Writers have been working on an anthology of short stories this year. The theme is isolation and the stories, however, reflect the many different interpretations of isolation and include everything from lost teddy bears to gruesome murders. Available Nov 14th.

How soon we forget, part #649: As recorded in that year's census, in 1910, less than one in four Nebraska residents was American-born. (Man, I hate xenophobes.)

For many who give care, there is no choice, no support, no respite. They survive, but cannot thrive. As a society, we owe them more than encouragement and gratitude. We owe them the resources to make practical decisions about how care is accomplished. #Alzheimers #dementia #mentalhealth #quote

I need some new takers for a game of Words With Friends! My username is DeniseSp. words2.page.link/qW3q

Why is BlueSky saying I have not verified my email? Am pretty sure I did that when I first signed up... Scam? Phishers?

Square apples...?

A serene, silvery blue grey sky here in Hartlepool, the light reflecting off the still waters of the marina and the masts of the Trincomalee darkly outlined against the sky

A soft, silvery early morning sky, reflected in the still waters. A pale sun is gilding the tops of the Maritime Museum buildings and the tall masts of the Trincomalee

An ice-blue and silver early morning sky, one round snowy puffball of a cloud over the mountains. When I opened my window the clattering and chattering of the birds in the rooky wood flooded in, along with the scent of the roses in the hedge

I still have no idea how this thing works! How am I meant to find people/posts/threads that might interest me? How do I get mine seen? Are people actually active in here? Is it worth the effort of learning? Who knows?
