Lily writes about the everyday extraordinary, from the political to the poetical. Her live performance combines spoken word with tender verse and has been described as:  

'Beautiful. Powerful. Moving.'

 

Lily's debut pamphlet, You Make me think of Swifts, is due for release in May 2024 with The Collective Press, with foreword by Lucy Jones, Author of Matrescence, On the Metamorphosis of Pregnancy, Childbirth and Motherhood. 

​

"This book is electrifying and radical; an oasis, a spring, a healing balm [...] A generous, consoling, inspiring and powerful collection which swells with imagination, meaning and hope."  

Lucy Jones, Author Matrescence, On the Metamorphosis of Pregnancy, Childbirth and Motherhood

 

“Scorchingly honest and human - Lily’s poems about matrescence, motherhood and identity are moving, vivid and bright.”

Jude Jones, journalist and author

 

“A stunning collection – visceral, loving and brave. These are poems that pulse with energy and rhythm, stirring the soul and igniting the senses. An absolute triumph.”

Emylia Hall, Founder of Mothership Writers

​

"These poems are life-lines and sunlight and moths and the guts and the gore, the deep cold water and the free wheeling birds; the ephemeral dreams and the harsh realities. This is soul work."

Claire Tonti, Song Maker, Storyteller & Podcaster
