After lockdown one in London, we were all feeling pretty untethered. Poetry was helping me get through it and I wondered if it might help others, too. So I started up my Instagram account @words.for.when, to give people poetry that spoke to them about the specific and strange situations we were dealing with. By sharing my struggles, I found my load grew lighter, and others reached out to say the same.

After a few requests from followers, I decided to give the people what they want - printed poetry! I'm overjoyed that poems are back in fashion, to me there is nothing better for the soul or for the world than a healthy dose of poetry.
