My Lavish Lockdown Digs

March 31, 20201 Comment

One of the things vexing me most about people in this pandemic (aside from food waste and panic buyers and people openly coughing in public) is rich people telling everyone staying home isn't that hard. Obviously, stay the fuck at home, but it really isn't as easy for everyone. We don't all have cinema rooms, … Continue reading My Lavish Lockdown Digs

Cooking to Forget the Crisis

March 29, 2020March 29, 2020Leave a comment

Creating is my favourite way to pass time. And suddenly I, like most people, find myself with a lot of time. However, as I mentioned in my last post, all of our brains are rather full of worry to be focusing on things like writing and other brain-reliant projects. Which is why in times of … Continue reading Cooking to Forget the Crisis

A Little Shine of Hope

March 26, 2020March 26, 2020Leave a comment

A short post this evening to mark the end of day three (how is it only day three???) and to celebrate a little shine of hope in this seemingly endless darkness. The world is, undoubtedly, a scary and confusing place right now. And Britain had issues long before coronavirus crept onto our shores. What with … Continue reading A Little Shine of Hope

Lost Twenty-Something on Lockdown

March 24, 2020March 24, 2020Leave a comment

Lost Twenty-Something on Lockdown sounds like a pretty shit movie, huh? Yet somehow this has become our actual lives. I’m finding real life so unbelievably surreal. Perhaps it’s because I write fairly apocalyptic fiction—I have not set myself up to be in the best frame of mind about all this! I listen for something from … Continue reading Lost Twenty-Something on Lockdown

How To Be Kind

February 21, 2020Leave a comment

Be kind. We've been hearing that a lot over the past week and it's a marvel we still need to be reminded. Just be fucking kind. How can it be that hard? But what, pray tell, even is kindness? Is it buying a charity t-shirt that says 'be kind' on but was made in a … Continue reading How To Be Kind

Let’s Talk About Love: Valentine’s And The Greeks

February 14, 2020February 14, 2020Leave a comment

It’s that time of year again. The time where everything is obnoxiously pink and people think snogging while others are eating their damn dinner is fine. I’m perpetually single (big surprise!) and one of the things I get annoyed with is the ‘what a waste’ comment. As if me not falling in love with a … Continue reading Let’s Talk About Love: Valentine’s And The Greeks

Writers’ Block: The Opposite of an Advice Post

January 29, 2020Leave a comment

Right now I’m a walking (sitting) cliche. I’m in front of my iPad and keyboard in a coffee shop with a glass of mint infused water and a falafal wrap on order. Who even am I? What has city life done to me? I can’t afford to be here, I’ll have to cut back in … Continue reading Writers’ Block: The Opposite of an Advice Post

A Life Update and AWOL Explanation

December 16, 2019Leave a comment

OK, so I should post something to let you know I’m still alive and kicking. I’M ALIIIIIIIVE. Life got crazy for a while. It still is crazy. My head’s full to the brim and I feel frantic pretty much always with how desperately I want this Edinburgh move to work. Please, let it work. My … Continue reading A Life Update and AWOL Explanation

Phones, Social Media, and the #Offline48 Challenge

November 6, 2019Leave a comment

I’ve spoken in previous posts about social media and how it has both a light and a dark side. It’s fantastic for connecting people but it’s also unfathomably addictive. To narrow this discussion down even further, today I’m going to talk specifically about phones. It's how you're reading this right now, isn't it? I only … Continue reading Phones, Social Media, and the #Offline48 Challenge

Taking Risks and Influencing…Myself?

October 9, 2019Leave a comment

Despite being what a teen novel would refer to as plain, I’ve never been shy of taking a risk. Or of doing things on my own. Frankly, I got tired of people standing me up. If I wanted to do the things, well, I had to just pull up my socks and crack on alone. … Continue reading Taking Risks and Influencing…Myself?
