Inspired by the first lockdown I took part in the cornerHOUSE Community Arts Centre project to write my reflections on my personal experience of the pandemic in lockdown, in no more than 100 words
This has now been published as a book and will be placed in the British Library Collection.

‘Seriously’?!!
Random conversations with strangers,
On the meaning of life
‘Surely its 42’?
Isolation, anxiety,
Living on my own,
Self-care,
New recipes, spa days,
Film nights, reading,
Taking care of myself
Lockdown easing,
Social distancing walks with friends,
Laughter, tears,
Virtual hugs.
‘Is this the new norm’?
