Exam time. Holy moly. Supporting young people through this time - everyone does it differently. I’m waking up early to get my songwriting time in the bank before I’m needed. And then it’s full-on brow mopping and snack supplying. Anyone else in this? Tips for survival?

Over the coming weeks, if you’d like to know, I’d love to tell you the story of how this very long epic poem of an album of mine, WILDFIRES, came to be.

Tour date 20 finds me in Lazonby, Penrith in Cumbria. I’ll be singing my heart out, singing songs from my five previous records and then the new one WILDFIRES (part 1 this night).

Can you help me to fill this show up to the rafters?

Christmas stocking idea: 2 tickets to a show, printed off, in a card, tucked into a stocking. Surprise!

Or 2 shows, part 1 and part 2 (see poster) with an air b&b, to make it a get-away.

Either way, Christmas extends for 3 months…

Making videos the last couple of days at @cambridgejunction (thank you Rob!) and @westroadconcerthall (thank you Anthony!) and out on the beautiful River Cam in a punt.

Winter punting is amazing. @mickpaulusma helped me - someone had to punt.

Should be finished by NYE. C‘mon, let’s be ‘avin yer.

Every Mon-Fri 6.45-7.15am UTC I go live on Instagram @pollypaulusma to invite a quiet club of morning writers to share writing time with me.

We don’t talk. We use the time as a little island of quiet to write stream-of-consciousness torrents that fall off the pen.

Join us if it could be helpful.

Snapshots of today’s edit, for the song Cabin in the Woods.

On 28 Feb I release two movies, one for each half of Wildfires the album, at YouTube.com/pollypaulusmamusic

The movies will encourage you, dear listener, to make space in your hectic life to receive these album halves in one sitting.

A quick chat with Neil Cowley before we launched into it at Studiowz Nov 2023.

Over and Over is one of two very spacey synth-infused songs on Wildfires.

Take a listen

I wrote a new Substack (free for all to read this time), all about songs as a response to grief, and sensory deprivation in boarding school. And yes, that's me, aged 10. Find out why it's a rabbit and not a fish when you read it.

This is a still from a video I’m making for my next record ‘Wildfires’. I’m making two hour-long movies, one for each part of this epic album - Part 1 Sparks and Part 2 Embers. I’m making these long films to encourage you my dear listener to lie in a dark room and gift yourself a full immersion.
