My poem was long listed for the Scots poetry category for the 'Saint Teneu Poetry Competition 2025'.

As a result I made the final anthology alongside the winning entries and invited contributors including the inspirational Rebecca Sharp. @rebeccasharp.bsky.social

Whoo hoo, that's a win for me. 😁

Memoir - OUT OF THE BLUE 🚑
A frightening trip to A&E leads to a serious unrelated heart condition being discovered. Struggling to be on the patient side of the ward with two young boys at home, this nurse's life becomes one balancing fear, hope and love.

Still processing the amazing week I had in Dumfries & Galloway at a writing retreat run by Marjorie Lotfi.

One of my favourite bits was the cosy evening readings by Marjorie & guest Elizabeth K Reeder
