CHARRED Anniversary Tour 2021

Welcome

Wow, its been a year since my debut poetry collection CHARRED A survivor speaks her truth to inspire was published by Team Angelica.

To celebrate i have created this anniversary tour where i will be reading poems and answering your questions online and in-person at various venues around London.

This interactive booklet is updated in real time which means this will always be the most up to date version whenever you are viewing it.

Signed copies of CHARRED will be available to purchase as well as opportunities to win a free copy.
(cash & card payments accepted)

What a journey! I look forward to seeing you at one or more of the events.
