I am running a poetry workshop on ekphrastic poetry - writing inspired by visual art - on Tuesday the 11th of February at 11am in Wootton Church (OX20). If anyone from here would like to come along, please drop me a line!

Very exciting post just arrived from Canada. I couldn’t be prouder to have been published in Grain Magazine (now available for the first time as a digital issue!). grainmagazine.ca

Glorious family Christmas.

Issue 8 of The Waxed Lemon is out at last and available in
The Book Centre in Waterford. You can also grab a copy on their website. The first time a poem of mine has appeared in physical print! Go on, you know you need one... shop.thebookcentre.ie/Books/WAXED-...

I’ve designed my first cross stitch pattern: to make for my husband, who uses this phrase constantly (every time he sees something worthy of approbation). Can’t decide if I like the red version or the purple version best. But the purple reminds me of rosemary flowers.

Utterly thrilled to see a poem of mine in print in a physical magazine. Issue 8 of The Waxed Lemon arrived today with my prizewinning poem from the Write By The Sea 2024 competition inside. And the darling subject came home shortly after the magazine: all the sweeter. #navywife #poetry

Morning prayer in Wootton: natural light.
