I made a video for my book!
Apparently it's a thing people do, so I made a promotional video for my book. Yes, it's two months too late, but better late than never, right? I didn't spend too much time on it, and it's free (hence the watermark), and I have never made or edited a video before in my life, so [...]
Promotion time!
Gotta keep plugging my book. Sorry peeps. This is what it looks like: Click >>here<< for a list of where you can buy it. Basically, it's every poem I wrote through 2018, in order.

The Shifting Sands

Self harm Isn't just slit wrists Cuts on your arms Putting out cigarettes On your thighs Self harm Is ignoring the storm Never seeking calm Letting the weight inside Pull you down It's papering the cracks Ignoring the fact That you've fallen down And you lack the strength To get back up On your [...]
Sorry to bother you, but…
I'm probably going to get quite annoying soon. Or more annoying if you already find me so. In order to receive more royalties for my book sales on Amazon I had to register for Self Assessment with HMRC. If you know about UK tax then you'll know what that means, if you don't know then [...]
Inside My Mind
I try to imagine What it would be like To step inside my mind See it from the inside What would I find? So often it feels Like a cold and empty place Inhospitable To all but the hardiest of feelings But today A demon has awoken And brought with it a fire [...]
A plea for proofreaders
G'day all. I've previously mentioned the plans for my second published collection of writings. Every poem from 2018 will be in there, in the order I wrote them. Obviously the writing is finished, and I believe the formatting is correct as well. Sadly though, I can't include artwork created by my friend. Even without images [...]
