There was a long queue to the repair shop. There always seemed to be, these days. The areas for fabrics and fibre, wood, metal, mechanics and electronics were all busy, but none more so than the dreams section. "Oh, this has taken some beating, poor thing." "Can you fix it?" "We'll do our best."

I'm still very proud of this drawing 🥰 I did also draw Sora's opposite number from my novel, Taiera, but I don't feel I captured her quite as well...

AAAAAAAA awesome book swag! 😎 @clericofthevoid.bsky.social this is all so gorgeous! Made it through the dismal UK weather in immaculate condition 🥰 can't wait to start reading Name Her Holy!! 💙📚

Rewatching Dungeon Meshi (/Delicious in Dungeon) on Netflix and the detail that "the only way to non-violently stop a chanting mage is to kiss them right on the lips" will never not be hilarious to me 😆👌 I hope I have the opportunity in my stories to use that beat

I read other people's work and think "fuck. that's amazing writing why can't I write like this." Then I'm sad. Then I re-read some of my own writing and think "fuck. this is actually awesome too, it's just different. maybe I can do this!" Stick with it, your work is different because it's yours ✨❤️

I couldn't have put it as succinctly as this, but, yes! I have found the very same with my writing, and you can *see* the transformation of ideas from notes to draft and in revisions. I remove elements and enhance others, the direction and meaning changes, and that process is where the magic lives ❤️

There’s a Turkish phrase about the upside of hitting rock bottom being that things can’t get any worse. It goes göte giren şemsiye açılmaz and it means “an umbrella up one’s ass cannot be opened”

Just bit the bullet and deactivated my Twitter account

My choices this evening are writing (editing) or Arcane fanart, and tbh I'm torn 🫣

Wife: what are you up to? Me: Trying to write some stuff Also me: *Scrolling Bluesky and not writing anything*

Once I read a theory of writing that said that the books that are harder to produce are the ones that mean the most to you and will mean the most to the world. 1/2

Writing has felt so very challenging this last month (illness, lack of concentration, general brain fog). The scenes I've been writing as part of this developmental edit have not been forthcoming! That said, looking at the doc I have written maybe as much as 2000 words. Not a lot, but not nothing! 🫠

Two of the last gouache paintings I did before we moved house. Haven't painted since (these were both done in November *2022* 🥲 urgh) Honestly still super-proud of them though 🥰 🎨💙
