Yesterday I tweeted a photo of a tree near my house, in a post about pareidolia (seeing faces and other images in everyday objects). This morning I woke up to find this from the wonderful @PrivateerArt.
Donβt let anyone tell you that Twitter has lost its magic.
Getting back into the habit of submitting poetry and saw this thanks to the wonderful @lozzawriting
Submissions are open for Issue 5! 2024 is YOUR year. It's time for change-- we want to hear about it. Link to submissions in bio.

Word thatβs making me smile today: pareidolia. Itβs the tendency to find faces or other meaningful patterns in everyday things. A fox in a cloud, a heartbeat in white noise, an owl in a tree trunk.
After reading The Weight of Water I'm currently obsessed with @SarahCrossan
Please nobody speak to me this weekend I'm very busy!

Skip
Skip, in a moment of joy,
a second of celebration,
Unhindered by inhibitions,
Released to rejoice
In life, letβs skip, skip, skip!

Lifeβs a Leap
Lifeβs a leap, a hop, a skip
Go chase the day before it dips
Lifeβs a hop, a skip, a leap
Go save a smile before it fleets
Lifeβs a skip, a leap, a hop
Go catch a tick before it tocks

Teachers! Have you seen this book? Shaping the World, a book of shape poems about heroes who have shaped our world - 20 women, 20 men, including all the ones you know, and some who should be more well known, especially women! Great for cross-curricular- history, art, and poetry!
Had a few bursts of inspiration and sent some things to @PaperboundMag this evening for their theme ELEMENTS
Why not do the same?
Hope everyone is having a great start to the year!
A little reminder that our writing and illustration submissions are currently open. The theme: elements! π₯π§π¨π±
Deadline: 23rd Feb!
We can't wait to see what you come up with!

Got a bit carried away, but like the kid in the poem, sometimes your hand is the poet and you just go with it. Thanks @lozzakidwriting for being an inspiration (as always)

I'm both delighted and honoured to announce my story about wasps and friendship in the latest lovely issue of @ParakeetMag. May it entertain and give you pause. It's a story I've always wanted to share and I'm so thankful to be able to do it here. π Thank you!
Happy publication day! Issue 3 is up and ready for readers. Sydney and I had so much fun curating this collection and are thrilled to share it with you!
