For those of you who have known me a long time you'll know I didn't leave my house for almost 8 years, and then I did a 1 year course and now I am in the second year of my degree. I've come a long way. I performed locally in my comedy society and then did a month run at Edinburgh Fringe.
But this month I made another huge step and because of its nature I wanted to share it with you guys, because you are my base of love and support of my writing.
I performed performance poetry (a whole new genre to me) in public for the first time this week. I attended the Rhyme & Reason event in Bath Brewhouse, Bath and read two poems. I recorded it for my mum so if you wanna see it its available here and I would LOVE your feedback

but mostly I just wanted to share it with you all and say thank you.. cos some of you kept faith in me when I had none and some of you even kept me alive.
Love you all

Poetry competition (Ends this week)
Hi guys! I am running another poetry competition (off DA) and thought I'd tell you about it. It has cash prizes (paid via Paypal or similar online bank transfer options) and has some free entry options if you are eligible! It closes in a few days, so if you have a poem that fits the theme (Embers, Ignite) then go ahead and enter, or get writing! More information at www.CandleLiterature.com As we worked on the name CandleLit (@CandleLitPoets on FB, Insta and Twitter) and our tag line ‘Poetry that lights a spark‘ there was a reoccurring image of embers, almost dying, igniting flames like words sparking ideas in the audience at a poetry night. So we decided that we would make that our first competition’s theme, to help you get to know us as much as we get to know you through your entries! You can interpret this theme any way you like, there are no restrictions on that. You might want to go for the idea of something almost dying out, but surviving. The idea of something giving birth
