On putting it all out there

Visible to anyone in the world

Two short pieces I'd written as part of my TMA - one a poem about Cork and one about life, death and writing during Covid were published this summer. I feel validated as a writer. Not that publication means it's good or makes me a better person, but it just reminded me that what I write can have a larger audience than just me, in my living room, with my red leather journal and a cup of coffee, scribbling away. I'm getting braver.

Hi Barbara,

I liked your post "the curtain falls" A very good description of your mother and an  insight into her life and her hopes and dreams to become an artist. Very well written.

Best wishes

Gill
