I'd like to thank people here who supported me at the time and stood shoulder to shoulder with me, as they saw the extent of what these people felt free to say to me, under the guise of anonymity. Your support meant a lot then and continues to now.

Just wanted to put a quick post here because I've neglected mastodon. Part of it was that I got pulled back to twitter but also a bad experience with the abusive Irish writers here unfortunately and wasn't able to post. I'm seeking and getting healing for my experience since 2020 and last November and the continuing intermittent abuse as I speak up. It's been enormously stressful for me, and my health demands I clear it from my energy.

When I started draft 4 of my latest novel (after realising I'd submitted too early) the word count was 135k (yikes!) In 1 week I have reduced it to 126K. I want to get it down to 100k or fewer words. It's an eco-crime novel with Civil War backstory. Keep crossing fingers for me!

This week I have made 3 bike pick-ups which the previous week I would have had to make by car. Delighted to be able to be a #BikeTooter again, and be part of the solution rather than the problem :)

I was a total crank so took a walk. Sweated like a pig but felt so much calmer afterwards. Sweat till the poison is gone :)
