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. 💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Got to speak to a group of young people about advocacy, surviving domestic abuse, and mental health. They were the same age I was when I was able to leave, really put things into perspective for me. Forever grateful to the shoulders, ears, and voices that helped me escape, heal, and stay safe. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙

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. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙

Happy Publication Day to @lenniesaurus.bsky.social, POYUMS ANNAW 🌊 is out today!
