Words
These
poems have been written since the late 1990s, most recently with the Together!
Pop-Up Poetry Club whose poets continue to energise me. I have largely
earned my living as a writer
and artist since I was 21, but I also believe in data freedom and
art for all. As with my other work, I therefore share the online editions
freely here, and welcome and thank you for your interest and time.

You
can also watch my set for International Women's Day 2022 here
and two longer outspoken-word pieces relating to disability, What's
Normal Anyway? and Wheels
on Fire.
