Took a train to Brighton! I’ll be doing more of that. Happy days on the beach…☺️ #Brighton

She wears misery Like it’s going out of fashion Cobwebs cling to her tragic form Spun to delight By a smirking Black Widow, Her new dress Hangs #Suspiciously from an oak Its weeping trunk Bearing knifed initials & a broken heart, Death will fit her better. #vss365

“Did you contemplate between the two options and those two options only, to smash your head against the wall or to smash someone else’s head?” - Tauria, “Tangle of Choices” What happens after happily ever after? For Tauria, romance turns into drama. mybook.to/BVbho55

Love how these daisies open in the daytime & close at night. Happy Friday ☺️ #WeekendVibes #FlowersOnFriday #Nature

Someone crept onto my day bed when I wasn’t looking… Hope your weekend is as relaxing 😽 #Caturday (📸 mine)

Nothing #casual This marriage Between my pen & I, Intimacy shared Upon pages white, Words bled from black No grey truths Green #doubts of loyalty Or false pink-petalled promises, Our ink, our bond. How’s your relationship going? #vss365 #NALove

White Delphiniums. My first ever. Calming in a week of flux… Happy Friday Friends 🤍 #FlowersOnFriday #NaturePhotograhpy

One could not temper The #wildflower within her, A fusion most exquisite, Sweet passion, sheer force, To compel #change Would shred her soul, A rainbow devoid of rain, A sunset with no sun, Tho’ many thorns did she bear, Her petals continued to bloom… #vss365 #NALove

Someone’s been open air clubbing tonight & danced for five hours…💃🏻 #WeekendVibes

☺️So, I’ve written my novel, and I’ll be honest, I love it. It’s a meaningful, contemporary story, told with tenderness, an observational eye, and hopefully, a sharp wit. I can edit no more. I think I’m finally ready to query.

😂🤣This was too good to ignore. Feel free to add your thoughts😁

☺️Wishing you all a lovely weekend ahead. Happy Friday😊 (📸 by me) #FlowersOnFriday #Nature
