Book reviews, recommendations and literary life.
Here we are again, another week has flown by. I feel like it’s been quite a busy week and it definitely feels, rightly or wrongly, that things in Wales are starting to change back to some sort of normality. I went to a charity bookshop for the first time and accidentally bought two books – …
Hello and happy Sunday everyone. Sitting down to write my Sunday Stories post each week has become a welcome routine. I try to write a daily physical journal (because I’m old school) but this weekly ritual of looking at what I’ve been up to is a lovely way of focusing on the good things! Here …
Happy Sunday everyone! It’s a gloriously sunny day here and so far, my Sunday has been spent eating doughnuts on Penarth Pier whilst looking out at the water. It’s lovely to feel some sense of normality and see everyone enjoying their fish & chips or what have you. Now I’m back home, sheltering in the …
I thought I’d change up my Sunday Stories this week a little bit to share the things that I’ve been enjoying this week. I normally get these out in the morning however today has been very productive. My lovely partner cooked us an excellent breakfast, the flat is clean, I’ve done some yoga, and now …

Hello friends! Another week slides past and here in Wales in terms of lockdown, it feels like nothing much is changing at all. Yet change is in the air as we see protests across the world – we must keep doing the work. Here is this week’s Sunday Stories and what I have been up …
Hello friends, what a week it’s been. In the world, on social media, in our own heads. This week’s Sunday Stories is reflective of the work I have been doing yet this is not intended as a pat on the back. This tiny pocket of the internet that I have is a platform for talking …
I write this week’s Sunday Stories hidden in the shade. It is hotter than the sun this weekend in Cardiff which is great but I have pale skin and I wear a lot of black (think a Wednesday Addams vibe). I’ve forgotten how to be summery. Don’t get me wrong though I’m very grateful for …
It is just me or has this week felt like the longest in existence? But now it’s Sunday, and not just any Sunday, but Sunday on a Bank Holiday weekend! (How many times can I say Sunday in one sentence?) Even in this strange time I think it’s good to acknowledge these things, even if …
