The Journey Of A Lifetime
Around 3 years ago, I was 19/20 and not sure what I wanted to do with my life. There was quite a lot of uncertainty that would circle around in my head a lot of the time. One day, my boyfriend gave me the suggestion of writing down the thoughts that were making me feel stuck. So, I opened a notebook and started to write. It gave me a sense of relief that I hadn’t felt before. It made me feel like I could finally communicate what I was thinking, something I have struggled with for a while, something I have been doing my best to work on. This experience is what made me decide to post my very first vocal piece called “Family Isn’t Always Forever.”

Becoming a writer
I can't remember the first piece I ever wrote. I expect it was a Christmas story involving elves and a lot of "And then"s to link my ideas. I expect I was at school and it was a task set. I really don't know.

Flights of Fancy, Football & Introversion
I’d told the story before, though without much detail. It was simply a flight of fancy…, a love of football…, &, as I’m beginning to understand, being on a spectrum I knew nothing about.

Feelings, Feelings, what are they?
When I first started writing, it was due to depression and struggling to feel. I tried a diary and journalling but felt I was just complaining a lot without ever fully understanding what I was writing. However, from a young age, I always had a fascination with poetry and old English writing, so an idea occurred...
