Yesterday

Yesterday I enjoyed
The last of this summer's sunshine
A final chance to wear flipflops,
Showing off sparkly turquoise toenails
Wearing cropped jeans and linen.
 


Yesterday I enjoyed
The beginning of autumn
Crinkly lime seeds scattered
On the railway platform
Belfast on Culture day
 
 

Yesterday I enjoyed
Eating warm toasted teabrack
Drinking a comforting latte
Browsing shelves of books
In a busy bookshop
 


Yesterday I enjoyed
Meeting up with fellow SCBWIs
Hearing their news
Encouraging each other
Talking about writing

It's turning out to be a good writing week...

It may only be Tuesday, but so far, this week has been a good writing week. Today I heard I've won a writing critique for one of my picture books from Soaring '20s - High Flying Picture Book Debuts  https://www.soaring20spb.com/ Looking forward to receiving feedback in due course to help my writing develop further

Being interviewed

Interviews can often be daunting. I was delighted to be asked recently to be the featured member by SCBWI Ireland. You can read the interview here. Thanks to Colleen for organising this. It was a very enjoyable and insightful experience for me.
