The First post

and it's nice to meet [your name] today...

Hello!

I’m Cariad, thank you so much for being here, if we haven’t met before, I am an actor/writer/podcaster/improviser who talks a lot about books/grief/comedy/improv and does her best to cope with this current world we are watching through the internet.

I don’t have a fun name for this place yet, I don’t know if i’m focussed enough to do that, so at the moment it’s just me and my head and its thoughts. (Uh-oh!) But, I am good at holding hands, I have been complimented for my hugs as well, and I just want to provide a place where we can be :

a) emotional if we need to

b) then make a joke about our emotions to hide our innate human vulnerabilities

and

c) then occasionally recommend nice books/cakes/skincare products if you have rosacea.

You just need this tbh…

If this sounds bearable, please do tell your friends, share links, all the usual things that people who shout into the internet want you to do. I promise I will inevitably also talk about moomins/herbal tea/thermal layers/cake/chocolate/children’s books/ grown-up books/clothes/Jane Austen/improv/the BBC 1995 adaptation of Pride & Prejudice, at some point as well, if that sways you.

Darcy, just thinking about being great and helping Lizzie, whilst making Wickham look bad at the same time. Maybe having a lil bit of cheese on toast as a treat when he gets back.

And how could it not?
