Happy birthday Shakespeare! Although the exact date of his birth is unknown, it is generally celebrated today; the same date as his death. I'm sticking with my theme of putting yourself out there with this quote from Measure for Measure. If we don't take risks and put ourselves out there then NOTHING will ever happen! . . . . #shakespeare #measureformeasure #bebrave #putyourselfoutthere #writerslife #writersofinstagram #writercommunity #authoursofinstagram #authorcommunity #workhard #staypositive #powerofpositivity #takechances #riskit #thinkpositive

Been putting myself out there today at a local writing competition that was TOUGH!! I most definitely felt vulnerable! But it was an amazing experience. I learned a lot and met knew people. It is scary putting yourself out there for others to judge but it is so worth it. After all, that's essentially why we write isn't it? Be brave. Take action and things will happen. . . . #amwriting #write #writersofinstagram #writercommunity #authorsofinstagram #authorcommunity #staypositive #powerofpositivity #bebrave #takeaction #workinprogress #workhard #putyourselfoutthere

This just popped up on a feed and it was exactly what I needed to hear. It will be worth all the effort... . . . #amwritingya #amwriting #write #writinglife #writercommunity #writergoals #writersofinstagram #writefromtheheart #workinprogress #workhard #staypositive #powerofpositivity #amediting #debutnovel

Rating 5/5 I am so sad that I’ve just finished Eleanor, it was amazing from start to finish. Firstly, Eleanor Oliphant herself is a wonderful, complex character whom you can’t help but love. She clearly suffers from mental illness and is extremely socially awkward resulting in some hilarious moments, like being baffled by her colleagues making fun of her wearing one white cotton glove for her eczema. The writing is beautiful and I love that it is in 1st person so we get to stay inside Eleanor’s head the whole time, and her extensive vocabulary is impressive. I read with my pencil to hand, how could I resist underlining sentences like this; These days loneliness is the new cancer – a shameful, embarrassing thing, brought upon yourself in some obscure way. This is a heart-breaking read – one of loneliness, self-hatred and dealing with PTSD. But also uplifting, with themes of self-discovery, change, taking chances and allowing positivity into your life. I’d recommend to all! . . . . #readerscommunity #readersofinstagram #bookstagram #bookreview #review #eleanoroliphant #gailhoneyman #bibliophilesofinstagram #bibliophile

My 5yo made me a bookmark in school because he remembered me saying I needed one last week. It's rather large but makes my heart melt. He's written 'I love you Mummy' on the back ❤ . . . #bookmarks #familylife #family #itsthethoughtthatcounts #bookstagram #eleanoroliphant #readerscommunity #readersofinstagram

My brother lent me The Cursed Child! I love Harry Potter but I've got to say I'm a bit scared to read it! Will it crush my dreams of Harry's, Ron's and Hermione's future? 🤤 . . . #amreading #readersofinstagram #readerscommunity #harrypotter #thecursedchild #bookstagram #books #read #readerslife #bibliophilesofinstagram #bibliophile #lovereading #jkrowling #harrypotterandthecursedchild
