About


I’ve always loved words, their power to bring back a moment in all its imperfect glory.

For years, I was a voracious reader, worked with writers, and curated a literary festival to celebrate the joys of reading and writing.

One day I was struck by the compulsion to write.. there was no saying no!

For ten years, the floodgates opened and I relished experimenting with the many voices and forms of poetry. I published some of this work and it journaled some of the most tempestuous times of my life.

Recently though, I’ve welcomed in the lyrical urge. That magical dance between words and music.

So here are a selection of this evolving body of work.

If it strikes a chord with you, let me know. I’d love to see how my words and your music, or my words with your words, can make a beautiful new thing.
