Really look forward to playing at this event on Sunday 4th in Glasgow! I'll be playing my now 3 songs about the menopause /perimenopause, come along for an evening of hormonal exploration! There'll be other great performers too, tickets at the door. #singersongwriter #glasgow #menopause #music

I'm very excited to say that my song about the perimenopause/menopause "EVERYTHING'S HORMONAL, BABY!" comes out everywhere next Friday. It's getting hotter and hotter! 🔥 #singlerelease #newmusic #singersongwriter #comedysong #menopauseawareness

Eclipse photos from yesterday! Braid Hills, Edinburgh. Unfortunately clouds hid the peak, but there were lots of wonderful moments. #eclipse2026 #solareclipse

A feminist poem critiquing women is maybe not the usual, but I've encountered this internalised misogyny a lot, and I felt vindicated when my Pilates teacher posted that only women tell her she's too much. Why do we do this to each other!? #feministpoetry #bealioness #poetrycommunity #feminism

I wrote this poem a couple of months ago and thought it wasn't quite finished, but I found it in my phone notes today and decided it was. Or at least it is for now! #birdpoem #magpies #gardenbirds #poetry #gardenpoetry

Really look forward to playing at this next Saturday! I'll be playing somewhere between 6 and 7 pm in the garden, but there'll be loads going on the whole time, so come join us for what I'm sure will be another great open day! #gracemount #transitionedinburghsouth #singersongwriter #edinburghmusic

I know I have an older poem in drafts on this topic, but while I try to find it I stumbled on this one, so I'm sharing it for @thewombwellrainbow.bsky.social #PromptCombo #NothingMakesSenseNowadays If I find the other one I'll add it too.

I seem to be on a roll at the moment! I got the idea for a MENOPAUSE ALPHABET the other day and had a lot of fun with it! There are endless possibilities for writing a Menopause Alphabet, so I called it A and not The! I might think up another one. 🤔 #menopausepoetry #menopause #funnypoetry

Introducing my song: EVERYTHING'S HORMONAL, BABY! Perimenopause can be as full on as menopause, and as I transition from one to the other I can testify it can be brutal... but knowing there's freedom at the other end keeps me going - as well as writing about it! #menopause #singersongwriter #punk

Often when I've had a bad virus I come out the other end feeling like a slightly different person, like being ill transformed something in me, like it was a purging. I had some musings about that, this is the result. Anyone else feel like that?? 🤔 #poem #musings #poetrycommunity #songwriter

Bit of Shakespeare this weekend in Stratford upon Avon, this is his birth home and a statue of him just near it. It's right in the middle of the town, which is generally very pretty, lots of old houses. #stratforduponavon #shakespeare

05:00 this morning... how it looked... and how it sounded (the first cuckoo has arrived from Africa, on exactly the same date as last year). stevecarter.com/Cuckoo26.mp3

Before sunrise, dark mountains and an orange sky.

Cover of 'Kvinde Min' by Kim Larsen - Lars H.U.G version. It's a Danish classic, and I've been singing it for yonks... it's the kind of song I just fall back into singing even after quite a while. It's a love song to a much wronged woman... #coversong #singersongwriter #singer #kimlarsen

Thought fragments on beingness.... Beneath racing thoughts and stormy feelings the quiet beingness that is you, waits to be seen in the darkness and known in spaceless time. #poemfragment #poetry #fragment #thursdaythoughts #writinginspiration

I went for a walk with a friend at a local arboretum on the weekend and the only tree that was really starting to come to life was the larch. It was enough to delight us though, absolutely stunning! #larchtrees #larchbuds #treephotography #arboretum #springtrees

sadder as a noun than a verb, divide it's what forms when who you are and what I am, collide depression has nothing to teach just thick walls I can't breach and wide chasms too far to reach I'm leaving and I don't even know if you can see I must wake up and end the dream of you and me #vss365

Does a clear sky sometimes wish for rain? Does the pitch of night long for morning light? or the abundant tree, dream to shed its leaves? Is it wrong to wish for endings, when from them new beginnings spring? like raindrops gleaming, daylight streaming, or the stark beauty winter brings. #poem

I was going through my phone notes yesterday and found one with all sorts of fragments and Haiku. This one was from an old Twitter poetry challenge. I think the prompt was 'storm' and it made me smile again, so I decided to post it here. #poetryfragment #poetrychallenge #poet #singersongwriter

I wrote these musings last year for a prompt on shared freedom. My take is maybe a diversion, but in the end I think being free is about having choice. Being really free on an inner level is about choosing what is right, not easy. Share and be free! ✊ #poem #freedom #choosecompassion #protestpoetry

The second of my IMMIGRANT poems. This one is maybe more of a statement though! In a world where you can pretend to be anything you want to be, be real. ✊ #protestpoetry #politicalpoetry #poetry #immigration
