Five, yes a whole five, poems to delight you on this dark Sunday evening. Thanks to @lothlorienpoetryj.bsky.social for giving a home to my work, 'The Shape of Me' is one of my recent favourites, so thanks so so much!!

I have work up at Zin Daily! Do go check it out! www.zvonainari.hr/single-post/...

Really chuffed to have another acceptance this month, this time from the lovely people at Vagabond City Lit for a very special poem of mine called 'Bodies of Water' - It won't be published until Feb next year, but I cannot wait to share it with you all. Watch this space!!!

Morning all! Do you fancy some brunch poetry to tuck into this fine Sunday morning? If so, I have two morsels to whet your appetites at Empty Stars Review. Do go and check them out, or enjoy a taster below... emptystarsreview.wixsite.com/empty-stars/...

So pleased to have been picked for @mosspuppymag.bsky.social and The Hyperbolic Review's colab 'The Hyper-Moss Theorem'. Please do go check out my poem below and also all the other talented writers who are featured in this issue thehyperbolicreview.com/issue-1-poem...

I haven't sat down to draw one of my characters in a long time, so here's 'mysterious stranger' because if I revealed who he was, he wouldn't be quite as mysterious... and also a short comic about assassins, suggesting it's dangerous to walk up and surprise one with an unexpected act of affection!

I really need to catch up with my social media. Acceptances from Sabr Tooth Tiger Magazine for their inaugural issue, also Empty Stars, then capping all this off with my first haiku coming out soon in Heterodox Haiku! It's been a busy week!

Thank you @fussub.bsky.social for the acceptance of my poem 'A Sanctuary of Spiders' - I am really glad it has found a wonderful home and I can't wait to share it with you all. Happy Sunday!

Through visceral, bodily imagery & raw emotion, @meanerharker.bsky.social captures what it means to feel monstrous & human all at once. A celebration of courage & resilience, this personal piece lays bare the emotional & physical toll of pain, disability & uncontrollable change.

Excited to be a part of this special anniversary addition. My poem is a raw, personal expression of dealing with pain, disability and change. I have included it below. Please be aware it could be triggering, although I wrote it more as a celebration of courage & resilience. Enjoy

Delighted to have an acceptance from the lovely people at @prosetrics.bsky.social. The theme of 'whelve' really captured my imagination, and I cannot wait to share my poem 'longer days, shorter nights' with you all in their next issue x

Had an amazing night at the York Anthology Launch event reading my very special poem. So many talented people, it was an honour.

Another cheeky acceptance, this time from Zim Daily Magazine. Looking forward to sharing this in Aug xx

Delighted to be a part of this!

Go check out some new work of mine at @thepixelatedshroud.bsky.social - thanks loads for featuring my work! x.com/only_fangsXX...

Do go check out the latest issue of @hauntedwordspress.bsky.social - Rooted. I have a lovely little poem in it about connection, sacrifice and family. There's some great pieces in here, and it's especially good for younger readers too. Enjoy! issuu.com/hauntedwords...

I had the honour of being interviewed by Libre where I speak openly about my writing, the writing community & life in general. I hope it conveys a message of hope & the realisation how precious the people and connections we make are for getting us through the dark. www.librelit.com/in-the-ear/z...

Excited to have 4 experimental poems out in the wonderful Ranger Magazine - Do go take a look for something a bit outside of the norm - www.rangermagazine.net/issue11

I love this poem, I hope you do too!! Thanks to @themetaworker.bsky.social for featuring my work!

What an amazing acceptance for my birthday!!! This poem means so much to me, and to have it in @yorkliteraryreview.bsky.social is incredible. Thank you so so much for believing in my work. It has found the best home👨‍🦽 🚄

The second of my editor's picks for @frazzledlitmag.bsky.social is bellum by Zoë Davis, a fantastic piece of magical and mythological realism that left me hanging on that snapshot at the end and the, "what if" moment. Masterfully done. @meanerharker.bsky.social 💯 open.substack.com/pub/authorjm...

Thanks to @rangermagazine.bsky.social for picking up four pieces of mine for their next issue. They are experimental, a little bit out of the ordinary and one is written in an Excel spreadsheet... so expect the unexpected. Coming this Spring...

Absolutely stoked to be listed amongst such outstanding writers. Please do go take a read of this incredible issue and do check out my poem 'bellum' which you can also hear me read: www.frazzledlit.com/p/poetry-by-... Thanks again to @frazzledlit.bsky.social for all their hard work.

Flashback Flash Fiction Wednesday! A quick, 2 minute read from 2023!

Do you like comedy? 👍 Do you like necromancy? 👍 Do you like reading? 👍 If you answered yes to all the above, have we got a treat for you!!! Please go check out my labour of love at the link below. Thanks again to @publishedbyjake.bsky.social for taking a chance on this beaut. 🧟‍♂️ ❤️

I'm going to be a @frazzledlit.bsky.social poet 🥓 ❤️ Super excited to announce I made the cut and will have a poem coming out in their second issue! I think it's going to be incredible 😲 Thanks Frazzled Team for believing in my work!!

Delighted to be in this edition of Funicular Magazine. Thank you @funfunfunicular.bsky.social for believing in my work. I adore the cover!

Delighted to have made the first cut. Thank you @frazzledlit.bsky.social for considering my work.

Rather excited to announce that @publishedbyjake.bsky.social has picked up my labour of love - the tale: 'A Case for Necromancy in the Quest for Peace'. To know their editor laughed out loud while reading (in a good way) warms my heart on this dreary Monday morning in South Yorkshire ❤️ 📖

And another lovely set of poems released by bluedaisiesjournal.wixsite.com/bluedaisiesjou… - there was a really neon, futuristic vibe to this submission call and I think it's a fantastic issue, so go check it out!!

My work is out in the amazing @streetcakemag.bsky.social Please do go and take a look, this issue is a corker!

Miss Tabitha, just being awesome :)

And here's no.3! The wonderful @streetcakemag.bsky.social have picked up a curious oddity of mine for their next issue. I love a bit of experimental literature, and this is one of the best places for it. January is being very kind so far!

Another acceptance this month from @themetaworker.bsky.social Looking forward to sharing this with you all!

I have had my first acceptance of 2025! A personal piece about my father who grew up in Singapore, taken on by the wonderful @funfunfunicular.bsky.social - I cannot wait to have a copy, this really means a lot to me :)

Stone Circle #ThrowbackThursday poem : "I’m not sure this is the correct way to learn how to swim but" by Zoe Davis (@meanerharker.bsky.social) #Tbt stonecirclereview.com/im-not-sure-...

I have three poems out in the beautiful Suburban Witchcraft Magazine. Please do go check out this lovely issue, jam packed with gorgeous poetry, prose and art 😍

Super excited to once again be gracing the pages of @midlvlmag.bsky.social - this time with a short story about the undead and fried dough products. I will always have a soft spot for the first ever lit mag to take on my work. It began right here two years ago, and still going strong 💪 ❤️

Huge thanks to @thecandidrvw for featuring my work in their latest issue, which looks absolutely stunning. I did say I'd share 'A Lich Goes to Walmart' when it came out, so please do check out the link below. Hugs to you all 🤗 thecandidreview.org/a-lich-goes-...

I've been quiet again, but that means work is happening behind the scenes. I can officially say I'm querying again - almost exactly two years since my last attempt when I realised 300k was a tad ambitious for a first novel 😅 I have learnt so much since then, so fingers crossed!

Woke up to a lovely acceptance from @MoonflakePress for their 'Visitors' issue. Thank you for offering my piece 'At midnight' a home!

Some absolutely mahoosive squirrels out this morning! Really like this picture though, as the light was falling so prettily through the trees 🌳 ✨️

I have had a poem accepted that I'm super excited about. It's called 'A Lich Goes to Walmart' and is a modern parody of Goblin Market by Christina Rossetti. Hopefully, I'll be sharing it soon. Thanks to The Candid Review for picking this one up!

Today is a day for stew and dumplings. Nothing beats being nice and warm in the kitchen on a wet and windy day.

Delighted to have my print copy of @LastLeavesMag Issue 9. Just a short poem from me, but I quite like it. Inspired by this guy in my back garden.

Why is writing the bad guy's dialogue always more fun? I don't think a story is complete without it's suavely dashing- or comically hapless- antagonist. Here are a few of my favorite childhood cartoon baddies for you to enjoy. Do you recognise them all? #baddies

Lovely to have work in Rough Diamond Press' first print anthology. I've already ordered mine (available on Amazon)! Can't wait to read all the other amazing poems!

Hi, I'm Zoe. I love to write, draw and chat to people about pretty much everything. I'll be posting my art, literary highs and lows, and general shenanigans here. Feel free to say hello 👋
