my poem mother medusa has been accepted for publication elsewhere so i will be taking it out of the collection, or perhaps leaving an excerpt, i’m not sure yet.

i’ve had this idea for a dark psychology thriller lurking at the back of my mind for some time now, just collecting dust…using the #JustWriteIt 8CC as a reason to get a solid start on it, even though it is going to involve a lot of research, which is daunting…nonetheless Misery is A Child has just officially been published!

          ‘death cannot harm me
          more than you have harmed me,
          my beloved life.’ — louise glück, 1943-2023.

I also wanted to say thanks for the recommendation. I checked out three of her books from the library and have stayed up way too late reading them :)
