This week on the romantasy Court of Squirls & Birbs
(aka my back garden):

Brave Sir Robin hides from Death*

*One of the four Squirls of the Arsholepocalypse 📚💙

Soooo boring, right? I don't get it...

Cartoon showing one dry book and one that's been wet.

Ok, baths are just boring. I've said it, I stand by it, even a book doesn't help.

Finally get to post a pet pic. Dog sitting this little toodle-pip:

Simba Resistance is futile, you will be a-SIMBA-lated!

Another day at the romantasy Court of Squirls and Birbs (aka my back garden):

Whoa! That's my husband's ambition too 🤣. Looks like yours has a better chance 👍.

So many people hate it! 🤣

Thanks, I'm good, I don't have anything published yet.

Oooo, there's a bit in that one that almost made me wet myself 🤣

Ohh, lucky you! One of my all time favorite authors. Are you starting with Miss Silver or the non-series golden-age books? All are good but I'd recommend giving the first Miss Silver a miss (Grey Mask I think). 😀

View out the front door this morning - more Snow Queen activity overnight - but still no Turkish Delight...

Me too! I just adored them 😁 I had two sisters but my youngest sister was an only child... 🤣

As well as the birds who visit our garden, we have a family of four squirrels.
I can't tell them apart but that hasn't stopped me giving them romantasy names and overly complicated backstories.

Behold:

🤣

I liked it too! (can't eat it these days 😭)

So good!

So many people are disappointed with it 🤣

Discovered our garden has turned into Narnia overnight.
Am off to check the shed for Mr Tumnus or Turkish Delight (everyone loves Turkish Delight, right?).

I think this might also be how people become writers... (credit: Trying Times Comics)

Your poor son will have to spell that name for ever! JensEn, then they'll still spell it Jenson 🤣

Ooo, I loved that book!

Fact: I love a 'real' book but eBooks have saved me from being crushed to death on multiple occasions.

Done - thanks! Looks great.

👍

Have you read Jasper Fforde's 'Early Riser'? Great book, set in a world where humans hibernate 🥱

Ha! I'd need a bigger igloo 🤣

You too 👍

~Ahhhh, brilliant!
