I'm going to do that thing and start pinning the places I am published, so you can come back and read them if you like. I'm also going to give you a picture of the beach, with the waves catching fire, cos I'm nice like that 🌊🔥🖤

Grief is #introvert. She seeks seclusion in the heart of the crowd I smile, my voice taps out its customary staccato across the conversation. But it's a sham -the classic bait and switch I've joined her. We sit, companionable, a book between us. Your face on every page #vss365

Look up: you can see it glitter This little heart #emboxed, on high jewels and feathers, sharpened in the flash of house lights She can hardly beat, so stiff her finery The rippling crowd below begins to settle; the rising hush What waits for us behind the curtain?#vss365

Restless at midnight each petty defeat of understanding a perfect papercut in the day, unsealed Dry leaves on the fire let them #vanish in a crackle But these pages hold words too ancient to burn The day fixed black ink on vellum preserved for scholars & fools #vss365

So happy to have not one but TWO pieces out, my first of 2024, with @miserytourism Read on for bedbugs, sentient poo, and more sentimentality than you can shake a stick at 🖤

Hello loves. I've been quiet here for a while due to life stuff, long COVID, overwhelm and the algorithm getting me down. But I still like reading your tweets, and this writing community, even if it's harder to connect with ❤️ Love you all Pic of my face for the algo

One of my favourite things I’ve written is this prose poem that @voidskrawl published over at @_voidspace_zine two years ago! It’s written solely in Northern dialect! 🌟 #ProsePoetry #Poetry #WritingCommunity

"They sit on the kitchen counter and they weep Tears of bright fabric softener Course a lonely journey to that dread linoleum That will receive us all" ~@voidskrawl Nice!

Super kind acceptance from @miserytourism for two of my favourite stories has made me very happy. At a low ebb creatively, for personal reasons, and this is the reminder I need that even if it's not happening right now, I should carry on ploughing this peculiar little furrow 🖤
