A woman struggling with the anxieties of modern life, motherhood and personal fulfilment walks alone through London, facing dangers both real and imagined.

It's annoying to either be ridiculously productive and full of (brilliant 😁) ideas I can barely keep up with, or stuck in procrastination mode, wasting time, achieving barely anything at all. #writingcommunity #procrastination #amwriting #adhd?

These blocks I'm painting will feature in one of my Dire-Ramas for the Quay Arts sculpture exhibition in July. I can't wait to show you when they're finished. #quayarts #isleofwight #sculpture #artexhibition
Printing out the first chapter of my new book to distribute to my 'fans' at Medina Bookshop tomorrow. 😉

When your kids exhibit neurodivergent traits and you learn it could be hereditary, you look at yourself. So now, in my late 40s, I suspect I've always unknowingly had ADHD. (Plus perimenopause is making it more obvious!) #neurodivergence #adhd #womenwithadhd #perimenopause
This is happening next Friday at Medina Bookshop. (Although not technically a book launch for me - I'll be talking about my almost-finished WIP, Five Things I Can See.) It's free...and I'm told there will be refreshments! #booklaunch #cowes #medinabookshop #WIP
It's been a long time since I recorded my dreams on a regular basis, so I'm going to keep a notebook and pen by my bed again. But I won't draw or share them this time - I'll use them for writing inspiration.

I'm so pleased to find out that at least one of my Dire-Ramas has been accepted for the Quay Arts Open Exhibition! The exhibition - The Art of Sculpture - opens on Saturday 22nd July.

I didn't do as much writing as intended today, but at least my house is vacuumed, my toilet is clean, and I completed Beef on Netflix.

A couple of hours ago, I sat down to edit. But what I've actually done is experiment with different ways to put up my hair, gone through all my jewellery, and tested if I can still put earrings in (yes, but only one ear). #procrastination #editing #writing #getonwithit
Urrgh, I hate having to write an artist statement. It can be a fine line between too wanky and wanky enough. #artiststatement #direrama #diorama #openexhibition
