    7 years ago, I published my first story with @stingingfly My second came out straight after with @nplusonemag Now, by accident, I've about enough for a collection. We aren't all incessant factories. I'm at peace being a fastidious tortoise. (Thank God, I make money elsewhere)

    n+1 have now homed 3 of my stories, each of them intimate, tricky. I had wondered if there was a place for "Vale" in the present world. I am so grateful that there's a publication that accommodates disparate and uncommon voices. Cheers @nplusonemag! Another for the plant sill🪴

    I published a single story in 2021, a long one written over 3 yrs. Long Covid rendered me useless for reading & writing for much of 2020 & 2021 (I'm OK now). It's not always about how many books you consume or produce. It's allowing time for stuff to absorb & leave you altered 🦋

    Let me mark the end of year by saying that, despite greater recent awareness, in my view @WednesdayErskin 's writing still hasn't yet had the recognition it deserves. If there was a writer I could be, it would be her. Can't wait to read her longest story yet, a possible (novel)

    This is a stunning book. Wendy Erskine is a real one. The kind of writing that restores faith while remaining rooted in life, not abstraction. So proud of you @WednesdayErskin

    Heaven is other people. A delightful night of Wendy Erskine reading from *Dance Move*, Ali Millar from The Last Days, Darran Anderson from Inventory (and me from the secret novel whose title I forgot to share) Thanks much, @WednesdayErskin @tweetbytheriver @thesociallondon

    Holy moly, 6 yrs ago I split with the wretch to whom I was engaged & was still an actor in NI, undertaking a writing workshop in Dublin. I had no clue where I'd live & was as at a loss as I've been. Much can transpire in a mere 6 yrs. Also, you can change your life, of course! 🤍
