PSA: every #writer needs a catsitting gig

Stop Palantir taking over our public services! Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir.

Palantir, a US spy-tech firm, has been given access to millions of NHS patient records.

Its founder has said the NHS should be 'ripped up'.

Join me in calling on the government to end the dangerous Palantir contract.

Current read: Home Going by Yaa Gyasi
A really good book so far. Love that each chapter is based on the descendents of the previous, and I've learned a lot on the history of slavery. Recommend!

PSA: if you've had Fahrenheit 451 and Brave New World on your to-read list for ages, now's the time to get stuck in! Before they feel more close to home than they already do 😅

If you have a spare two minutes, I've made a survey about poetry and could do with just a few more responses 🙏🏻 particularly interested in hearing from people that *don't* read poetry as well as those that do!

A lovely evening at the York Literary Review 2025 launch, where I'm lucky to have found a home for my poem, After life 🌱⚰️

Loved going to some of the #nottinghampoetryfestival events over the past few days. One open mic and two workshops - ideas are buzzing 👀

Also happy Nottingham Poetry Fest day! 🥳

My poetry/artsy craftsy shelves ☺️
What collections are missing here that I absolutely should read?
#poetsofbluesky #poetry

Yep, that's what I do for fun!
(Seriously, do those things still exist...?)

Also told my partner that human men in this world evolved to have no hair beyond their heads, no belly buttons, and retractable penises, and now when I read he always asks me what "the smooth people" are up to

Current read 👌🏼 refreshing to see a future utopian setting where humanity is left cowering rather than conquering!

Well that's a big surprise
