Moody skies in #Northumberland and the farmer has been cutting the grass so the seagulls and crows are circling.

Hmmm… How on EARTH are we going to improve children’s reading & writing for PLEASURE when we continually tell them what has worth & what doesn’t, what’s good & what’s bad, what’s nourishing & what’s junk? If it’s for pleasure maybe we should let them decide what they enjoy.

Joined the @writementor hub after debating it for a long time. Why did I wait so long? So many brilliant resources for children's writers 👏🏻🤩

On Saturday we trekked 26 (perhaps actually 27) miles in the Lake District, raising money for @alzheimerssoc My feet may take a few weeks to recover but it was so worth it 💙
