I want to be a Paperback Writer.
I view my blog as a public journal; partly created to keepsake my own memories, but only the ones I think are worth sharing too. Actually I find more and more that I don't enjoy writing on a computer very much. I prefer the feel of a notebook between my hands and the sound of [...]
At the weekend I was humbled by a friend who told me my life was going well for me. Not that I ever take it for granted - the beautiful city I'm in, my never ending narrative of exploring, being able to create - I'm very aware of my blessings. But to hear it from [...]
To document some of my current favourite clothes: (I started writing a blog post to go with these pictures, but it's turning out to be a bit lengthier than expected, so it will follow soon. Bear with x)
Matthew Bruce's photography gives such a beautiful edge to otherwise mundane objects. Everyday items are brought to the spotlight so naturally you begin to wonder why you hadn't noticed them before. I find his pictures really relaxing to look over. In his latest zine, Matt was kind enough to publish some words of mine. I [...]
Life is starting to feel very black and white. I know it's up to me to start colouring it in. But I'm struggling to choose which colours to use. This is what I had started to think, as I was becoming more settled into life in London. The initial feeling of 'what the hell is [...]
Another old note. Isn't it strange how past pieces of writing can transport you back to memories you would otherwise forget? I can remember exactly where and what my thought process was when this idea began to blossom. Even though I don't necessarily feel the same way now, it's nice to have something raw from [...]
On Saturday morning I was sad to discover my camera would no longer turn on. I think it's due to water damage, which occurred just before Christmas. The chances of it working since have been rocky. It's the first camera I bought for myself and the first camera I had for more "professional" uses. I [...]
SMALL SPACES Though my room is small, that's just how I like it. When the sun shines through the window, such as in the photo above, the whole room is heated naturally and everything is really bright. I love to lie on the bed facing out the window. My plants live on the window sill [...]
Being twenty two was a whirlwind. Sometimes I've thought of it as slightly reckless, but I think that was adjusting to the drastic change from my previous lifestyle. As I was going through the photos I have taken this year I smiled. I have never had so much fun and adventure in the rest of [...]
To write about Kenilworth now, I will have to stretch my mind back to a month ago. It was a Sunday when I visited. Surprisingly bright, although it was cold and it had rained for three days straight prior. The road surrounding the castle had flooded. A group of people had gathered on the bridge [...]
