Oh, hi there. I last posted a stupidly long time ago. Between the times of yore and now, a fair bit has gone on. Five of the most significant things include: moving into a cottage in the North York Moors National Park, revolutionizing my relationship with food*, deleting Instagram, creating balanced days* and not giving up… Continue reading A Wyrd Of Her Own
I have a daughter. She's nearly nine months. When she decides she wants a nap, be that at 2pm or 2am (she's not a predictable baby) I take the opportunity to make a video from one of my poems. Here are four I've made over the past four days. I'm new to this folks, so… Continue reading Four Darkly Inclined Poetry Videos
The spectacular 'I Am Dust' series by photographer Olivier Valsecchi makes for a perfect end to the week.

I recommend you spend the next 51 minutes and 42 seconds not doing very much, except for tuning yourself… Continue reading Sound Of The Day : Satanic Warmaster
I needed a strong dose of strange art this morning to set me up for the day. These gorgeous, intricate art works by Lisa Nilsson are anatomical cross sections crafted from paper.
My weekend has started exactly how I like it too...with introductions to dark art which blows my fucking mind. Thomas G Anderson's work has me on my knees in worship.
I can't think of a better way to end the week thank sinking into the imaginative art series Nethermoor by artist Chris Berens. Inspired by Michael Ende's novel The Neverending Story, Berens series is utterly sublime. There's a dark dreaminess about his work which I find myself addicted to. While I'm on the subject of… Continue reading Chris Berens : Nethermoor
I have added some new winter products to my Redbubble shop! Now you can buy my work in the form of leggings as well as tote bags, cushions, prints, mugs…the list goes on!
Celebrating the strange and the shadowy, the damned and unseen
