Biography
Hi, I am around middle age as I write this, I have a lovely son and I still have no idea what I want to do with my life. I feel a close affiliation with nature and like to be alone in nature away from things as much as I can. I battle chronic illnesses, mental and physical and it seems that any time I try to get a bit ahead in life my mind or body or both let me down somehow. I have dyslexia and dyscalculia which together have held me back a lot and I am nurospicy in general I believe. I don't have any great aspirations but I am trying to get back into being creative as an outlet. Sometimes (often) my writing/poetry is deep and sometimes a bit dark as I go through depression or look at the things going on in the world. I like to sing as a form of therapy and have only ever sung for myself. My art can probably best be described as weird. I don't actually think of myself as a poet, writer, artist or singer, more as just a bit creative and I don't think I am particularly good at any of it really, but it helps to do it and hopefully I will progress along the way. I have never been formally trained in anything other than how to be a waitress, which I can no longer do and I did dance at college, which I can also no longer do (both because of health problems) I would like to reach people who feel things in the same deep philosophical way I do and hope to make a small impact on the few who find me. I am not very bothered about making it big on instagram where I share most of my work and only wish to express what comes to me, maybe build a little online creative community. I am aware that posting writing makes it harder to be published but as this is a very slim possibility I would rather just share it. That said if I could ever be fortunate enough to make a living out of being creative somehow that would be amazing. All the best, Kate.
