Yup, it’s been a LONG wait (sorry!) but the new Dark Dates book is finally out. You can buy it in paperback or for Kindle here. It’s a bit weird launching a book in a pandemic but I did have a couple of drinks to celebrate…

Some writing resolutions you can keep even in a plague year

December 31, 2020 · by traceysinclair | in Uncategorized | tagged resolutions, Writing, writing prompts, writing tips | 1 Comment

I’ve never been a fan of New Year’s resolutions. In part this is due to my fondness for seeing autumn, with its ‘back to school new notebook’ vibe (and the fact that my birthday is in September) as a much more natural fresh start, in part because in a normal year my work schedule tends […]

Unpacking the past

December 21, 2020 · by traceysinclair | in Uncategorized | tagged family, personal | Leave a comment

I hadn’t expected my mum to die. I remember that, as I look at the shoes – a pair of cheap, shiny black ballet pumps that I had to go out and buy, because I didn’t have any shoes with me that were suitable for a funeral. Shoes I haven’t seen in 8 years, because […]

Coping this Christmas

November 30, 2020 · by traceysinclair | in Uncategorized | tagged advice, Christmas, life, mental health, personal | Leave a comment

Christmas 2020 was never going to be normal, was it? But I suspect I am not alone in feeling a little sad that we’re approaching the end of the year and all that ‘it’ll be over by summer!’ optimism now feels like a far-away fever dream. Many people are facing a stressful, complicated Christmas – […]

November 26, 2020 · by traceysinclair | in Uncategorized | tagged Christmas, shopping | Leave a comment

This year lots of people are trying to support indie sellers by shopping small, so I thought I’d share some of my favourite retailers – all of whom I have either shopped from myself, or had things sent to me from via friends. It’s therefore obviously not remotely comprehensive! (If you’d like a more detailed […]

Bystanders – audio drama

October 8, 2020 · by traceysinclair | in Uncategorized | tagged Bystanders, drama, radio, Zoe Cunningham | Leave a comment

Exciting news! My long-time friend and occasional collaborator, the fabulous Zoe Cunningham, has made my piece Bystanders into an audio drama! I’m both excited by this and in awe of it, as someone who can barely figure out how to work the mic on my Zoom calls. You can listen to it here. You can also read the short story […]

(More) lessons from my cross-stitch

September 22, 2020 · by traceysinclair | in Uncategorized | tagged crafts, Writing, writing tips | Leave a comment

I wrote an earlier post on why your lockdown hobby, be it cooking or crafts, can actually be a useful thing for your writing, and as my cross-stitch obsession deepens, it’s teaching more and more ways that is true. So since we’re heading into local lockdown again here, I thought I’d use some of the […]
