Hi folks. Just the small matter of these two beauties and the impending season of gifting. They're choc full of nature, emotion and eco-poetry. Contact me if you'd like a copy, or seek them out on the Offa's Press website. #BooksForChristmas 📚
Two books, The Taste of Rain and September, surrounded by a garland of autumn leaves and fairy lights, and a candle.

A poem titled by Cherry Doyle describing fleeting moments of discomfort and anticipation, with imagery like 'blood rushes at the corner of a nail,' 'jumper caught on a door handle,' and 'pansies nodding in speckles of rain.' The text is displayed in a clean, minimalist design.
