My golden shovel, “Titan[ic),” appears in issue 107 of Mslexia, (Blue Showcase, curated by Amy Kay). I wrote it as an elegy to the victims of the Titanic and Titan.

It’s been a while since I published flash fiction, so I’m really pleased that “Self-Portrait of Someone Else” appears in the Summer issue of NFFR, alongside my audio recording.

“weather warning”, based on Andreea Ceplinschi’s photographs, won Beyond Words’ ekphrastic poem challenge and appears in their April—May 2025 issue.

I owe thanks and gratitude to the editors of Rust & Moth for nominating my poem “Elegy” for a 2026 Pushcart Prize. The poem was first published in their Spring 2024 issue.

I’m delighted to have two poems in The Passionfruit Review. "Channel Seascape" is one of my North Sea eco-poems; "still lives" is my first reverse poem.

One of my North-Sea ecopoems, "a ghazal for Doggerland," about the submerged land that once connected the UK to mainland Europe, was published by Ink Sweat & Tears.

Thank you to Shooter for publishing this piece, which opens the Nightlife issue! I wrote “as you light up” during the COVID lockdowns as a love letter to London and clubbing.

“Mammogram” is a mirror poem. I thought the mechanical form echoed the experience of having a mammogram. I was lucky—the lumps turned out to be benign cysts.

I’m a member of Women Who Submit: “mother tongue”, my first bilingual prose poem features in their latest anthology, Transformation (Jamii Press).
