This is how I made sparkles of time, my woven poem out now with @Gregchthomas at Oo Press. It’s delicate & tiny (it fits in the palm of my hand), & is made by weaving strips of text from a second-hand copy of Lorna Doone 🖤✂️

Something many people in your world aren't going to understand is how expensive it is to exist w/ a disability in our culture. The financial stress of functioning, let alone trying to work a recovery, while disabled is a very real layer of trauma that is rarely acknowledged.

An essay from the editor, exploring AI and authorship, is published in the latest issue of @magmapoetry - out now!

Thank you so much to @Joelle_o from @MerkyBooks, @samjordison from @GalleyBeggars and Katie Bowden from @4thEstateBooks for the incredible insights they offered in last night's Meet the Editors webinar with @Bruneluni! Next up we have Meet the Agents on July 8th. Exciting!

Because our voice was silenced, misunderstood, shamed, or hijacked, doesn't mean what we had or have to say is unworthy or untrue-- and it doesn't mean that we cannot, day by day, remember & reclaim our right, responsibility, & ability to create & express ourselves through words.

This is ‘mille kisses’. Since giving birth 6 months ago, I have spent countless hours feeding and bonding with my baby. Breastfeeding has been exhausting, challenging, rewarding, comforting and truly a full-time job but I cherish the opportunity to be able to do it! ❤️

Prints of my wee woven poem are available from Oo Press this solstice 🖤🥳✂️
