It's my final post of the year so a good time to say thank you for reading my blog. I've made many friends over the five years I've been blogging, some of whom I've become friends with in real life and some of whom I feel I'm friends with, even though we've only met on… Continue reading Goodbye 2016
After my mammoth blogging extravaganza when I posted every day in November, I've been having a little rest. It's rather delightful! Almost inevitably, I've done more poetry writing which is a good thing, I think (*peruses notebook nervously*). I've also applied for a couple of jobs (and been turned down for one 😦 ) -… Continue reading An update of sorts
So, I'll say, let's have coffee and we'll go to a small café on a side-street in Italy or Spain or Portugal or France, somewhere far enough south that even in December we'll sit at an outside table in our coats and catch a little sunshine. I'll order an espresso and I'll be wearing a beautifully tailored… Continue reading So, I’ll say, let’s have coffee
My websites have received a very nice mention from Matthew Stewart at Rogue Strands. In his round-up of The Best U.K. Poetry Blogs of 2016, Matthew says Josephine Corcoran runs And Other Poems, which is one of the best e-zines on the U.K. poetry scene, but she’s also a prolific blogger, chronicling her personal journey through… Continue reading UK Poetry Blogs of the Year
Well, friends, we've made it. Thank you so much for being with me on this blogging extravaganza of thirty whole days! And doesn't the world look different today? As I look out at our frosty garden, I can hardly believe that it's only been one month since my husband, Andrew, and our son were in… Continue reading Wordy Wednesday – #NaBloPoMo – we did it!
Never done a Gratituesday post before which is surprising, considering how grateful I am to so many people. I don't have enough photos to share here so apologies for that. Rest assured, they are extremely photogenic, all of my family and extended family and I'm very grateful to them. Even when we're arguing we love each… Continue reading Gratituesday
It's Day 28 of National Blog Posting Month and I'm running out of ideas. I'm running out of clean socks and pants. No matter how many I buy, no matter how many I wash, they disappear. I'm running out of apples, pears and oranges because my kids keep eating them. I'm running out of food… Continue reading Running out of….
Anthony Wilson sent me some questions and I've answered them in this post. Some of them are to do with me taking part in NaBloPoMo and NaNoPoblano and blogging every day in November. I've sent some questions to him and you'll be able to read his answers tomorrow at his blog. Can you say why you… Continue reading When Anthony Wilson interviewed me…
If we were having coffee it would almost definitely be tea and I'd tell you that I feel an urge to tie up loose ends. What I mean is, I have an itch to finish projects, tidy things up, file papers, make decisions, clear my desk. Is it because it's almost the end of another… Continue reading If we were having coffee…… #weekendcoffeeshare 26 November 2016
