Poetry collection February 2024

”Depression told her never to write again, yet here she is fighting back.”

Poetry Collection November 2022

"She has risen which many people thought she couldn't, she wouldn't, instead of remaining dead and buried."

I made an account recently on a website called Letterboxd. It is my newest obsession as I love to browse through the hundreds of created lists for just about any film out there that has been mentioned and reviewed.

This diary is mainly for the movies that have been on my Prime Video watchlist, as that is the app that I use the most to watch things on. I started at 50 movies and I have written down the numbers 1-50 and placed them in a jam jar. I pick one out at random to watch every day (mainly in the late evenings) and then review it.

All my thoughts here are spoiler-free. Feel free to join along in my watching adventures!

I am back with some new poetry!

This collection does contain a bonus poem at the end, which I wrote for someone I volunteer with who recently got married. I still aim to have my poetry short, sweet but get to the point and all feedback is appreciated. Thanks for stopping by.

Rated PG for mental health mentions

The real-life tale of me after being diagnosed with autism in March 2019.

Since my diagnosis, it's always been my goal to share my experiences and thoughts with others around the world. It's not only informative and educational, but it's also a good creative outlet for me when it comes to letting go of my mind. Autism shouldn't be silenced. If you have your own experiences to share or any other questions, don't hesitate to DM me or drop a comment on any of the chapters. Thanks for reading!

Chapter five onwards was written during April Camp Nanowrimo 2020!

Poetry collection for Camp Nanowrimo April 2019!

If there's one thing in life that inspires me, that is the trees I see from outside my bedroom window, in the local parks and whenever I go travelling with my family. Each one having a story to tell. Some hundreds of years old. This April collection will finally open up about my discovery of trees to the world. I hope that you enjoy this collection, as much I as I enjoyed writing it!

This is a quick story in verse, about an un-named girl who gets caught up in a horrific situation in which her world falls to pieces. Or does it?
