… is the working title of one of the poetry anthologies I’m aiming to get released later this year. In part, the title reflects my own journey with perfectionism and arriving to the point of “letting go” when it comes to my art.

At the same time as noticing howContinue reading “Origins of a Colourful Hat Collection”
