Super kind acceptance from Misery Tourism for two of my favourite stories has made me very happy. At a low ebb creatively, for personal reasons, and this is the reminder I need that even if it's not happening right now, I should carry on ploughing this peculiar little furrow 🖤

"There is a snake beneath the tree twined into the roots coil against coil jaw against jaw it writhes and it bites and it bites" - Katy Naylor - STOVETOP GHOSTS @booksfemme miserytourism.com/nithoggr/

"They sit on the kitchen counter and they weep Tears of bright fabric softener Course a lonely journey to that dread linoleum That will receive us all" ~Katy Naylor - STOVETOP GHOSTS @booksfemme Nice!

One of my favourite things I’ve written is this prose poem that Katy Naylor - STOVETOP GHOSTS @booksfemme published over at the voidspace 🕳️SUBS OPEN🕳️ two years ago! It’s written solely in Northern dialect! 🌟 #ProsePoetry #Poetry #WritingCommunity

Hello loves. I've been quiet here for a while due to life stuff, long COVID, overwhelm and the algorithm getting me down. But I still like reading your tweets, and this writing community, even if it's harder to connect with ❤️ Love you all Pic of my face for the algo

So happy to have not one but TWO pieces out, my first of 2024, with Misery Tourism Read on for bedbugs, sentient poo, and more sentimentality than you can shake a stick at 🖤

Restless at midnight each petty defeat of understanding a perfect papercut in the day, unsealed Dry leaves on the fire let them #vanish in a crackle But these pages hold words too ancient to burn The day fixed black ink on vellum preserved for scholars & fools #vss365

Look up: you can see it glitter This little heart #emboxed, on high jewels and feathers, sharpened in the flash of house lights She can hardly beat, so stiff her finery The rippling crowd below begins to settle; the rising hush What waits for us behind the curtain?#vss365

#vss365 introvert’s sentence solitary confinement she turned herself in #introvert #SenryuSunday

Grief is #introvert. She seeks seclusion in the heart of the crowd I smile, my voice taps out its customary staccato across the conversation. But it's a sham -the classic bait and switch I've joined her. We sit, companionable, a book between us. Your face on every page #vss365

Beyond chuffed to have a poem nominated for BOTN. Thank you to SHINE poetry series for giving Social Creature a crack at making the cut 🖤
