This is just one of the rather gorgeous places I spent my weekend. If this doesn't scream "children's adventure story about running away to an uninhabited island to live in a cave," to you, you had a deprived childhood.

Sheltered cove on Russell Island off Vancouver, which is indeed uninhabited. There were no caves here, sadly, but I'm pretty sure we could have found some a bit further around the coast. Shot is of a rocky outcrop overhung with trees and bushes, on a beach strewn artistically with driftwood. You can just make out a somewhat blue sea in the background, though in reality it was a lot bluer.

Finally back in the saddle with the free monthly micro-reads! Phew! Get your summer shiver on with this cheesy vamp-fest horror read Flash fiction horror is always free on the website. And eventually I get around to doing an audio version too. www.fkmarlowe.com/fear-bites/b...

Blood Count — F.K. Marlowe Writes

Vincent likes taking blood. But he’s about to meet someone who likes it even more. His fingers are steady and sure as he tightens the strap, inserts the needle, checks the blood’s flowing nice and...

SIL gave me an entire pack of postcards like this, and now I need to become an elusive international criminal just so I can taunt an obsessed detective by sending them from unlinked worldwide destinations

Array of startlingly niche 1970s fashion pic postcards, the reverse printed with a fetching Charlie’s Angels style silhouette version of the front, and the pack they came in, which rejoices in the title “Catalogue Woman”.

Did you know there is a moderated Discord server for Stiefvater readers? Well, there is, and to celebrate the release of The Raven Boys graphic novel, they'll be hosting me for an AMA (Ask Me Anything) on the 7th of August, from 6-8pm EST.

As bad as they want to tell us the damage in Tel Aviv is, let’s not forget: ⚠️The injured are going to fuctioning hospitals with medical supplies. ⚠️Those impacted will still be fed ⚠️Nobody is shooting the paramedics. The same does not apply to those facing genocide in Gaza. #auspol

Good morning all! Think I should be able to do something with this rather lovely gate for a gothic book cover, no? If you’re feeling bored, feel free to photo edit me your inspo 😉

I just found out that growing onions and potatoes together can attract pests called “thrips” and suddenly I’m a character in a Harry Potter book. “Where are you off to, Mum?” “Oh, I’m just off to check the garden for thrips”.

Shout out to the gent who wished me a cheery good morning and, gesturing vaguely as we passed in the p*ssing rain, beamed, “isn’t it a beautiful day?” I understand you perfectly, sir. 🇨🇦✨

Been away awhile (busy pretending to adult) but dropped back in to bite my fingernails and follow a whole bunch of the kindly sort of Canuckian. 🇨🇦 (Can’t vote as a Brit, but elbows up, lovelies!)
