Marked As Safe

June 4, 2017June 4, 2017Leave a comment

For the second time in three months, I’ve marked myself as safe during a terror incident. Here is why I'd do so again.

Almost all Scribblers suffer from the The Scribble Bug. It’s an incurable condition, with common symptoms including bibliophilia, logophilia and a peculiar love of ink, paper and the smell of old books. And that’s what this blog is really all about.

Chasing waterfalls 🌺🌊🌿 . . And that’s a wrap on the first adventure of 2019 - I’m back in chilly, old London and feeling really rather excited for the rest of the year. There’s a lot to do - not least getting the ball running on pitching Renegade Earth to agents. Fingers crossed 🤞 . . “Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that, my child. Remember you are half water. If you can't go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does.” - Margaret Atwood . . #orchidgardensingapore #dametraveler #botanicalgardens #alittlebeautyeveryday #bloomingdays #myeverydaymagic #travelgram #igtravel #neverstopexploring #positivity #chasingwaterfalls #suitcasetravels #passionpassport #iamatraveler #singapore #bookish #atwood #penelopiad #writerslife #amwriting

Keeping it surreal 🌊✨ . . Still not over the idea of having a casual jacuzzi surrounded by jungle and lily ponds in the back garden - Singapore really had zero chill. Not sure it would be quite the same to set something similar up in the U.K. though. . . “Human nature is like water, it takes the shape of its container.” Wallace Stevens . . #dametraveler #alittlebeautyeveryday #iamatraveler #singapore #travelgram #igtravel #poolside #lifesagardendigit #beautifuldestinations #bestplacestogo #suitcasetravels #notallthosewhowanderarelost #passionpassport #neverstopexploring

May the forest be with you 🌿🌺🌵 . . Did you know that trees communicate? They have a sophisticated silent language made up of smell, taste and electrical impulses. They’re social too - they’ll work with each other to share food and even nourish competitors. Why? Because they’re a community. Because a tree is not a forest. . . It’s pretty weird to think of trees as social - but this was just one of the facts I was reminded of at Singapore’s Botanical Gardens in Tanglin. Pretty fascinating huh? Definitely worth the amble (before the midday heat), especially through the stunning Orchid Gardens. Very peaceful. Very powerful. . . #singapore #tanglin #botanicalgardens #orchidgardensingapore #orchidflower #hiddenlifeoftrees #alittlebeautyeveryday #travelgram #igtravel #iamatraveler #dametraveler #neverstopexploring #passionpassport #suitcasetravels #abouttime #treelife #notallthosewhowanderarelost #notallthosewhowander

The Scribble Bug

Beware of a Girl with a Book. She is dangerous. “There are those who say that life is like a book, with chapters for each event in your life and a limited number of pages on which you can spend your time. But I prefer to think that a book is like a life, particularly a good one, which is well to worth staying up all night to finish.” ― Lemony Snicket, Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can't Avoid
