Saltburn Demon

14th January 2026

just about to finish “Paladin’s Grace” by T Kingfisher

Let’s see if this morning’s commute will be less stressful than yesterday’s. Almost an hour late is not good for my anxiety!

At the last 50 pages of my current read and it’s been a blast so far, simmering spice throughout.

↠ develop Editor Q&A
↠ add three bookshops to bookshop directory
↠ write Paladin’s Grace review
☑ add three images to journal posts
☑ #WritersLiftWednesday post on Bluesky

This was a striking piece of graffiti on an old pavilion in Saltburn-by-the-Sea and I’ve used it in my social media for years

Ripped from the headlines
Head to your favourite news source. Pick an article with a headline that grabs you. Now, write a short story based on the article.

Always nice getting ahead of myself with draft posts, especially as I won’t be active blogging next week at all, there will be some scheduled posts on the blog and the writing prompts on Ko-Fi will also be scheduled. There will be nothing on the Substack at the start of the week but maybe something at the end of the week.
