Creative Projects
Alongside copywriting, I am very fond of writing recreationally and have a number of creative projects which I have detailed here for consideration and general interest. Please find links to my Novels, Blogs and Poetry below:
Poetry
My poetry blog: 'Time Is Running Out – Poems Through the Hourglass - Poems and Musings of A Young British Writer' began when I was a teenager on MSN Spaces before integrating onto WordPress. Although not always updated, poetry was the first medium of which I was published in 2003, 2005 and 2008 retrospectively and encouraged me to dabble in writing professionally.
Ginsterpigs
The following is a free excerpt of my debut novel Ginsterpigs.
‘Ginsterpigs’ is a modern love story for everyone, but its teller FRANK is not an every-man. Love is an emotion that is usually reserved for someone special. It is a rush of unique and uncanny feelings like rereading your favourite book for the fifty-eighth time. The touch of a newborn baby laying their still tiny newly formed fingers against your hand. The thudding of adrenaline as you weave and dance in the mosh pit of a live band. Or the adventures and misadventures you have with friends. Or even your pet guinea pig who snuggles up to you after a long day at work. It is NOT a bubblegum pink-haired artisan, almost a quarter of your age younger, sporting cheap cigarettes and expensive combat boots. But who said love made sense anyway?'

Blog
My main blog: 'Poetic Licensing - Cups of Tea
The Inner Musings & Daydreams of a Modern Vintage Lady' details my general musings on 1950's inspired fashion, recipes, writing and everything in between. Recreationally I use this blog to discuss my hobbies and interests and the blog showcases my understanding of basic CSS and HTML coding; with the site's full theme being custom-designed to fit my sense of whimsy and creativity.
