For open democracy: The Joyce Girl, and the mad wives of modernism

As you may know, I've spent the last three years researching and writing a book set in 1920s Paris. So I was thrilled to review another book set in the period, The Joyce Girl by Annabel Abbs

What was even more thrilling was the review gave me a chance to discuss some of the mad wives of modernism, and how patriarchal pressures silenced them.

For Halcyon Lit Mag: Two poems

Exciting news!

I started writing poems when I came back from Italy earlier this year.

Italy!


And two of them were published this weekend in Halcyon Lit Mag.

One is called Notte Rossa.

And one is called Blue

There's a collection brewing, I'm sure of it.
