Perhaps eventually, these entries will stop being about death and I will have moved on to another phase or lesson in life. But for now I’m here and despite it all, I’m happy.

So here I am, arriving at my new life that still has no solid form. I feel like we’re all stood outside this giant egg together, waiting to see what will hatch. I think years from now I’ll look back at this moment and realise how exciting it really was.

I realised the thoughts and feelings I was experiencing weren’t going to go away and that as much as I can try to deny them, it’s much better to bring them to the light and examine them for what they truly are

I haven’t written in a while. I think in my heart, I must be old-fashioned because I write these posts as if they were letters to an old friend

Things have felt slightly melancholic lately

Finally the feeling of summer is in the air. I always feel nostalgic this time of year, as it reminds me of something I can never truly put my finger on.

2018 has been one of the most incredible and transformational years of my entire life.

There comes a point that drinking like there’s no tomorrow stops being young and idealistic and starts heading towards a far darker place.

As you may have guessed from today’s title, I am discussing The Life Changing Magic of Tidying. I had known about this book for quite some time yet it had never really caught my eye.

I felt it was only right to dedicate this weeks post to saying goodbye to my beloved spoken word night! I don’t think I will really be able to convert all I have to say into a blog post but I will try. I have ran Rhymes & Records; a monthly spoken word night for the last two years, and boy, what a journey it has been!

I’ve previously been told that I’m very good at naming things; books, blog-posts, projects and hopefully this will be no exception. Salt Water Poetry was the name I wrote under for a while when I first got into sharing my poetry online

I love nothing more than discovering new music online, so I thought why not share the wealth and introduce people to some of my favourite female artists! For me, a song or artist always has more value attached if it has been recommended by a friend. With International Women’s Day being but a few days away, this post seemed very fitting!

Some of my favourite things / experiences from this very cold month!

In honour of turning 27 next week, I thought I'd list 27 things I've done this year that made me really happy.

Sometimes when I’m feeling the stress of life or want to indulge my inner child; I take myself out of the way, shut out the world, play some music and allow myself to paint.

In honour of World Book Day, I thought I would share a (belated) post on two books that have shaped my life!

Since my poetry baby Rhymes & Records turned one in January, I thought it only appropriate to commemorate this wondrous occasion in a blog post, reflecting on the year we’ve had and thanking some of the people who have been involved along the way.

A 10 week programme exploring poetry & spoken word

Have you always wanted to write poetry?

Who’d have thought that just by asking strangers to divulge intimate insights into their lives, they would! All people need sometimes is the right outlet.
