Originally from the United Kingdom, I now reside in Germany, although I freely admit to having left part of my heart in Anglesey, North Wales. Whilst I write mainly fantasy, I am more than happy to share my love of reading amongst the many different genres out there, and can always be found with a book close by.

Good morning, lovely people! June is here at last, and the shift is real and noticeable, that particular feeling of the year opening into something fuller and warmer. Monday feels like a genuinely good day to let yourself be carried along by it.

Have a wonderful one. Take care and stay safe. 💙

A Blue Moon & a Micro Full Moon on the same night: returning twice, & still keeping its distance. In Welsh mythology, the moon was never just a light in the sky. Tonight, that feels very near.

Drop a moon emoji in the thread if you caught sight of it 🌕

Gen-X is definitely top right, but I'm a mix of probably five. What sort of animal would that make me? 😆💙
And for those of you wondering... it's pronounced Kuh-HUR-aith 💙

Happy #FolkloreFriday 🌿

In Welsh folklore, the Cyhyraeth is a disembodied wailing cry heard before death or disaster, a moan carried on the wind that no living throat could make. She doesn't appear, she doesn't linger, she simply passes through the dark and leaves a cold certainty behind. Some say she was heard before shipwrecks along the Welsh coast, her voice rolling in ahead of the waves. Not every warning comes in time to matter. 🌊

Good morning, all!

There's a real confidence and warmth to this one that feels just right for a Friday at the end of May! The weekend is close, the world outside is looking its very best, and the year still feels full of possibility.

Have a Fabulous Friday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good afternoon, wonderful people! Sorry I'm a little late today, but I did have a good reason; I promise!

Today's quote is a thought worth returning to every so often, because it's very easy to move quickly from one book to the next without giving any of them the time and space they deserve. Some stories really do need to be sat with for a while before they give up what they're actually about.

Have a Thoughtful Thursday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good morning, my lovelies! There's a lot of quiet wisdom in this one, and it sits particularly well at this point in the year when the seasons feel less like a sequence and more like a continuous turning, everything connected to everything else with no obvious seam.

Have a Wonderful Wednesday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good morning, everyone! There's something genuinely steadying about this idea, that whatever yesterday held, the light this morning is entirely its own. With the days at their longest and most generous right now, that feels like a particularly easy thing to believe.

Have a Terrific Tuesday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good morning, my lovelies! It's easy to take for granted just how much of what we know and value has been carried from one generation to the next between the covers of books. Today feels like a fine day to appreciate that quietly extraordinary fact.

Have a Magnificent Monday. Take care and stay safe. 💙
