ymya diaries: you make yourself another
I’ve been struggling for a while to articulate I’ve been feeling lately, how to pin down this fleeting, transmutable emotion that comes with a dramatic shift but here it is; things are in bloom. If you’re new here, and you probably are, welcome! If you want an idea for the feel of this blog, I’d…

In Print: Death & The Maiden
I can’t believe I forgot to talk about this here but… well, I wrote a book. Actually, I wrote two books, a book of short stories which I put together over 5 years and is still going through the editorial process to make it perfect and polished and beautiful, and a little book of pop…

Round Up: Not Drowning, But Waving
The world has turned and I am still finding a balance. The world has turned. I am finding a balance. The world has turned, and I’m not sure what balance is. It has been a long year since I last updated here, I am notoriously terrible for keeping this up. Things happen in avalanche, and…

In Print: Corvid Queen & Everything Else From The Year That Wasn't
It has been rather a long time since I last checked in. It’s been a hell of a year (or two) and I have not always had the language or the energy to keep up these correspondences. Additionally, I just didn’t publish a lot in that time – which isn’t to say I wasn’t writing.…

Hello, my loves. It’s been a while. I can only apologise. There has been a lot going on irl these last few months – my chronic illness worsened, I went on dates, I got some rejections and a fair few acceptance letters, I lost my phone (which is why last month’s tarot poems got scrapped…

In Print: & Life Cycles On and A Twitch of Muscle – Rookie Mag and Write Young Things
I’m so proud to say that I’ve managed to get some more work out in the world since we last spoke. Rookie Mag does monthly creative prompts, and last month’s concept of past lives resonated with me on a strange level. That resonance resulted in this piece, & Life Cycles On, a patchwork creative piece matching…

Published: Something Like A Spotlight / Oh God She's Talking About Jesus Again and Tarot Poems
I told you I was being busy, and I meant it. I’ve just set up two new pieces on my payhip, Something Like A Spotlight, and Oh God, She’s Talking About Jesus Again. Something Like A Spotlight is LGBT romantic fluff, wherein a nonbinary singer songwriter becomes smitten with the accidentally charming barista at the…

In Print: Haiku Journal #58 and WhyMag Promo
It’s been a little while since I last posted, and I will excuse myself in the round up post, but in the time since I last posted, I’ve had a couple of things come through. I’m always very excited and honoured to be a part of Haiku Journal – which happened to be the very…
