A podcast I did a while ago which was so fun - also about The Three Lives of St Ciaran - talking queer multilingual literature!
Listen to author & lecturer @InesGLabarta talk about creative writing, queer historical storytelling, speculative fiction, migrant lit, gender fluidity & a host of other interesting things on The Subjective Space podcast: open.spotify.com/episode/1ZK…
On Spanish radio talking about my new novel - a queer retelling of the story of St Ciaran - published by @BlackwaterPress 😊
Coming up in the second hour of the #TREBookshow, with @radiohannah from 21.00CET - Angelica Lopes, Maria de Fatima Santos, @tobyclements12, and @inesglabarta #TuneIn on tre.radio or @TRERadioApp (First aired Thursday)

Well this was one of my dream list places to have my writing published in... when I wrote No Greater Love I was worried people wouldn't understand it because it's one of the darkest things I've ever written... 1/2

"Everyone needs to get this one thing about dogfighting... It’s all about love."

...so it finding a home with @HeatherParryUK (just one of my favourite horror writers alive) and the amazing team at @extrateethmag is just 👌
That's absolutely beautiful!! Thanks so much for sharing, now I can picture it perfectly 😍
Really enjoyed this segment. I had a lovely chat with @InesGLabarta and we talked about home and writing. Here’s a picture of my grandmother’s house. It’s the home in my heart. #amwriting #home #memories #atlanticcity
I love when writers take me to some of their favourite places... this episode is also nostalgic in the best ways possible!
This week's podcast is all about why Atlantic City is a meaningful place for @YBattleFelton thewanderingbard.net/2022/07… #writingcommmunity #TheWBpodcast
Great opportunity for poets out there!

This was me all last week... I need exercise... but for the mind? (I'm possibly talking about meditation here, which I've been trying to for a while now but it's HARD 😂)
There's definitely space in literature for 'hard stuff' and @nguyen_p_quemai talks beautifully about why stories like hers are important.
Another #podcast episode out! What to do if publishers reject you because they think you write about topics that are 'too heavy'? @nguyen_p_quemai is here with really powerful advice. tinyurl.com/2vwd6hca #WritingCommunity #TheWBpodcast

Just me chatting about my favourite thing, rejections 😂 it stopped from sending work out for SO long. I think rejection was always a sort of major fear since I was little (I guess it may come with the artistic brain...?) Working on it tho 💪
'Rejection is a normal part of the writing process, so if you're getting rejections it means you're doing the right work' @InesGLabarta at our podcast today! thewanderingbard.net/2022/07… #AmWriting #Writingcommunity

Ten Poems from the Coast edited by @MimDarling explores the variety of coastal landscapes – everything from limestone cliffs to muddy estuaries and sand dunes to saltmarshes. Everywhere there’s a sense that we go to the land’s edge to step away from the hustle of our daily lives.
Yup, so true...

Really like this interview, mainly because when you start sending work out you don't know that it takes LONG to get an answer (and most of them are rejections). Hey, editing and publishing takes time...
New podcast episode out! The very prolific @charleyblogs talking about how she faced rejections as a first time writer 👇👇👇 thewanderingbard.net/2022/05… #TheWB #WritingCommunity
Just discovered @orangesjournal 😍 Love lots of stuff I've read in there but really enjoyed this non-fic piece orangesjournal.com/mental-he… Writers out there - do you have a meditation practice? Has it helped you creatively? I've only had mine for 1+ year but it has changed me!
Really looking forward to this one!
