We've been a bit quieter on socials recently - as a volunteer-run team, we really do rely on the goodwill of our people to offer their time as and when they're able to, and right now, we are hella busy in our day jobs.

✨ THE SUNDAY QUESTION ✨

Our Sunday questions are now being thought up by the magic mind of - and we are thrilled to be bringing these discussions to you!

Today, we want to know - where would be your dream location to write your book?

Beach? Cabin in the woods? The top of a mountain?

Bec here, and my vote goes to the hills of North Wales - a bench on the Precipice Walk just outside Dollgellau is one of my favourite places to write. Unsure how I'd get my laptop power up there though 😂
