I started tinkering with the idea of creative writing around 2015. As I’ve gotten older and go through moments of slipping, I now try to embrace what’s happening instead of fighting it. Writing is one of the ways I’ve dealt with life for a while now and it’s empowering to not internalise feelings anymore. I’ve heard it said that tough times don’t always build character but they do reveal it, and so I like to see both the good and bad life events as an opportunity to reflect, learn and be better. We as humans are complicated, fragile and flawed; this work is an unapologetic celebration of that.

“Apollo is based on the many pieces I wrote over the course of my twenties — it ended up being a very eventful time. When assembling this collection I was twenty nine years old and looking back a lot, and noticed that I’d learned a great deal from that time. I refocussed my efforts and rewrote what previous existed - and in the process, Apollo was born. I hold a great amount of reverence for both the good and bad experiences I underwent throughout that decade and this is my tribute to that… that you can make it through to the other side even in spite of life pushing back.”
