Just become a covert member of Angus Writers’ Circle and I’ll sneak you in! 😘

Sadly not, but there have been lots of different residencies there over the past year.

And very well deserved it is too! Thank you to you and the fabulous WriteMentor team for another brilliant conference. 🤩⭐️

🤣 looks familiar!

It’s so good! We’re really lucky to be able to use it. It’s on the site of the original abbey scriptorium that the monks would have written in hundreds of years ago.

What a perfect #writing day! Started with a visit to the #Scriptorium at Arbroath Abbey this morning as part of the Angus Writers’ Circle #residency then home for more of the brilliant WriteMentor #WOWCON.
