I gotta be honest, when it comes to inspiration, there’s so many people in my life that are amazing and inspiring.
So, today, I’m going to talk about all of them.

Family first – and adjunct to them

So, there’s my family to share.
First up is my daughter – ArtenaPan – her photography Instagram is brilliant. You can also follow her on Facebook.

My son and his significant other don’t do anything to link to right now, when they do, I’ll never shut up about it.

My Mum runs Wash My Dugg, a grooming parlour in Edinburgh, and she’s kicking ass and taking names, we’re all very proud.

And then there’s my super talented sister in Law – Miss Vicky Viola and check out her Instagram

And then there’s my daughter’s fiancée – he’s started a Youtube channel where he streams games.

Again, Tempus doesn’t have an active presence online, but without him, I’d be nothing.

Friends

I don’t know where I’d be without my friends at LudoSport – so I thought I’d link to LudoSport UK and LudoSport International for general things to check. The biggest news they’ve just shared is they’re expanding into Japan!
I’ll also be talking about LudoSport again in L for LudoSport. And then, there’s Cheltenham (where I’m the person in charge of social media, aka, a Prophet/Lorekeeper) and Tempus teaches Form 1, and Bristol, where we’re going back to later in the year to do Course Y before advancing to other forms. I’ve learned from the best after spending two years in Bristol though.
But I’ve got friends all over the world – E, one of my newer friends is based at LudoSport Sweden.
I would name check each and every one of them (and frequently do in the front of my books) but the post would get super long.

Books…

I’ve also got a few indies I’d like to recommended, though I’ll be doing a bigger post in I is for I read so much.

But for now, I recommend Shanti Krishnamurty, Brianna Hawthorne and Denise McGee.
Also, Patrick O’Donnell is a wonderful writer – check out Cops and Writers for great advice and gripping books.
