Perfect rainy day reading. Love my #libraries #bookish #bookstodon #essays #naturewriting

Fancy a #WritingPrompt photo? Here's one for the #Friday night and #weekend #writing crowd.

What might this, literal or metaphorical, doorway lead onto? Who might be there? Are they arriving or leaving? What do they want more than anything right now? ...And what is stopping them from having it?

Happy writing of these inside and outside worlds!

So very proud to have my poem broadcast on the BBC today!!! You can hear me reading it at around 2 hours 20 mins in.

Thanks so much to The Afternoon Show @bbcradioscot @ladym_mcmanus and @annawelanderonair saying such kind words about The Trees are Clouds of Song,

This poem is from @dreichmag The Joy of Living anthology. It's about my late grandmother.

This poem is in the last photo, its text is in the next toot. #amwriting #writingcommunity #bbc #WritingGoal
