A few bits & bobs about me: I like to write eco poetry. I live in Oxfordshire and grew up on a farm. My debut pamphlet “Arboreal” was published in January 2024. I have poems in various places (see my linktree above if you’d like to read them!) Here’s my most recent one:

Howdy. Please excuse the silence. R103 is on its way, currently at the printers. So it should be with you just after Christmas. It is we think worth the wait.
