April Update 2025

Hi Everyone!

AT HOME:
We have far too much to do at home, but I’m happy to report we revamped the top tier of the garden over a weekend. So nice to see one project done. I was so tired of having no green on the ground even though I like the aggregate we have (and much prefer it to slabs), but Hubby has a grass pollen allergy, so we had to opt for fake grass. Not great environmentally, but any other type of lawn here would just be a slug buffet. They even eat hydrangeas! And slugs aren’t meant to eat those. Just a little more work to do by the path at the end, but we can sit out.

I’ve also been having a huge clean up, tidy, sort out, and have various piles for charity. Quite cathartic in its way. I wasn’t well enough to keep on top of things for a while, so it’s lovely to see the house clean and tidy, and my study — with no books on the floor! — is calling me back.

WRITING:
Alas, I can give you no more news on the anthology yet. I returned edits but we’re not at contract stage yet (more on why another time), so until it’s a done deal, I can’t say anything except the editor was delighted. I’ve been itching to write, which is a good sign; have just been far too busy lately, but I’ve got a lot done, and will get there.
Stay happy and healthy!
