Thanks to everyone who's been getting in touch, been dealing with non-poetry related dangers for the last wee while, trying my best to swim against the current. Thanks for the reminder that I am never without community, and thanks to the people out there who help keep survivors of abuse safe. ππ΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώ

Every page of my books is written for survivors of abuse, but my piece "You Are Here" was written as a tribute for MAF to honour the work they put in, every day, to help people heal. They give so much to their community, I'd be delighted if together we could help give them something back. π΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώπ
