Just started a week’s online boot camp specifically designed to target #procrastination, perfectionism and imposter syndrome. Buckle up, because I have all three in spades… and it turns out I’m very much not alone. #AmWriting

Ohhh, I love this. I’ve been not writing for a good couple of hours now, but found so many tiny things to help me procrastinate. Perhaps this will help. Right after this coffee… #AmWriting

It’s wonderful to see a project I’m part of (with my flash ā€˜The Reminder’) actually making a difference. There are some amazing stories in this anthology, go buy it and help a great cause at the same time!

Being asked to be a beta reader is one of the highest honours there is. It’s amazing to see talent hard at work! Thank you for your trust @emilyinkpen @MikeBrooks668 and Stewart Hotston. Watch this space people for some more truly fabulous stuff from these authors!
