Absolutely thrilled to publish my first chapbook today. The poetry explores neonatal care including the fascinating historical background and the challenges and joys of modern medicine caring for the most vulnerable patients. Online launch 17 May.

It has I confess come upon us sooner than we thought and more sudden than we hoped – but that, I suppose, is the nature of all life’s endings.

Comics will mend your heart, if you let them. When I was a scared, lonely, closeted kid, the Marvel universe’s heroes were there for me when very little else was. That is a debt I can never pay back, but one I’ve tried with great travail to pay forward. I want to believe we have afforded a little of that same refuge to those who sought it. I hope you saw yourself; please know you were seen. Til we all meet again (and may it be soon), may you find each other. May you find yourself. Remember that there’s always time – but waste no time. And what is broken is still beautiful.
Above all, remember love. It is all that lasts.
