Facilitating a #writingretreat is a bit like hosting a party for bookish types like me. We need lots of quiet time to write between bursts of conversation… and I’ve been talking to new caterers for this one on 21-22 May. Hope you can join us on my island in #Päijänne to write together!
This! some people need to tune their mouths and others need to tune their ears — let’s meet each other half way
Singers do learn techniques to produce the sounds, where you put your tongue etc. So it should be learnable but not many people get that kind of training. I think age is a factor too, how malleable you are when you start… why should people lose their accent though, so long as others can understand?

Today’s #stetwalk in the middle of a lovely online #writingretreat for @tohtoriverkosto-ry.bsky.social. Oli ihana nähdä teitä ja kirjottaa yhdessä!
As ever let me know if you need a scholarship. Looking forward to seeing you at our favourite venue

Lukija ei koskaan matkustaa yhden kirjan varalla ja kohta pääsee kaaokseen :-)

Note, like thesis, arsis pluralizes with an ”e”. Your author’s poetic analyses have not taken a vulgar about-turn, even when four arses pop up in a sentence. You’re welcome #amediting

Maybe a plant waterer can do a portrait — I’d say flowering is guaranteed
Iloitsin niin suuresti kun näin tätä 1. kertaa! Sitä lisää!
Can you install a webcam?
Ja vain täällä on sisäilma. Kuten vain saksalisilla on Kreislauf.
Mulla on ne keittiössä ja tuoksu ulottuu sopivasti sieltä olohuoneeseen. Mutta myös koska minulla on joulukuusi vielä kynttiläpäivän asti ja eivät mielestäni voi olla samassa huoneessa. Lasitetulle parvekkeelle voisiko laittaa?
Niin on! Larppaan mukaan, ei ole miekkaa mutta on hupullinen tunika tänään päällä, tuli vasta nyt mieleen. Pitää keksiä sopiva menyy lounaalle…
Parts of a sword, from seven swords but Wikipedia has the same image
You know it’s going to be a fun #xl8 week when the first thing you have to search is names of parts of a sword (#archeology museum, since you asked, and yes we do already have objects for “possible religious or ritual use”)
Säynätsalo Town Hall between snowy pines

Gerne — aber ich bin erst am 7.1. wieder am Schreibtisch! 🎄
My Christmas tree waits outside the open balcony door, still in that netting they use for oranges.

Jos ette ole vielä lukenut hänen kirjansa Sofia Tawastin kanssa, suosittelen vahvasti, on hienoja tiivistelmiä selkosuomeksi www.tammi.fi/kirjat/suuri...
Tämä on niin raivostuttavaa!
‘I often think that the first dictionary a child in Gaza carries is invisible and heavy. Before they learn the names of distant animals or the months of the year, they learn to point at the sky and say زنانة “drone.”’
Still not sure what a certain person (you included) might want for Christmas? How about two whole days writing with a dozen other lovely people, in a winter wonderland? Book now for 22-23.1. #writingretreat on my home island 📝💛☃️

Just finished another lovely #writingretreat at Valo Helsinki. As we finished up, the Christmas decorations went up. The energy of a dozen women in a room, all writing, is amazing!
I wavered but I went for the one I felt sums up the feel of this year…
I voted, have you?
