Life Writing
“Unassailable truth is for God alone;
for everyone else the past is a cat’s cradle to be played with as cats play.
Claw it, chew it, rearrange it … Nobody should mind.” Jeannette Winterson
My life writing piece, Violent Possibility, is in issue 3 of Friction Magazine ~ published by Newcastle centre for the Literary Arts.

Other interests: I am fascinated by the therapeutic potential of creative writing, patricularly life writing. I would love to hear from writers, therapists and organisations interested in collaborating in a community arts in health project of this nature.
Promoting unheard voices: I’m involved in a charity called DPPI which shares personal narratives on parenting with a disability for DPPI (link to sample stories).
