#02 Things I’m curious about
All the books, podcasts, articles and substacks that have kept me curious this week
If you’re just joining me this is where I share all the books, podcasts, articles and of course Substacks I’ve been reading and listening to.
This week I’ve also shared a little something extra. Whenever I need a little inspiration I always turn to the pages of a book. Poetry, fiction, non-fiction any words will do. I turn the page and draw inspiration from the words in front of me. This week I found The Becoming by Nikita Gill in her book of Poetry Wild Embers. If you’d like, you can listen to me read The Becoming in the clip below.
Have a brilliant week and I’ll be back next Sunday!

Thank you so so much for the mention - I really appreciate it. Just been in our garden pottering and wondering if it’s too early to pot up the dahlias and trying to remember my own advice... 🤷🏽♀️ it just feels so mild! Is it time?! 🌚
You’re so welcome I love reading your words. Ooh Dahlias. It can be tricky to know when it’s time. I pulled mine in the year before and got no flowers last year so I left them to their own devices this year 😬 to see if they do better in their own 🤞 hope you have better luck 🍀
