My First Best Friend - Essay/memoir
Published by Strwbry Jean Zine
I wrote this piece about the intense friendships formed during the teenage years. For me, the friendships of my youth were much more fraught and formative than any romantic relationships I had.
The Voice In Your Chair - Short essay
Published by online magazine 'Messy'
A short piece about the inner critic, and the seemingly impossible task of leaving it behind. I played with the idea of self-hatred being a singular, identifiable voice in my head.

The Rebellions That Rescue You - Essay/opinion piece
Published by Strwbry Jean Zine
I wrote this piece for Issue Two of Strwbry Jean Zine, on the theme of rebellion. Inspired by the quote ‘In a world that profits on your self-doubt, liking yourself is a rebellious act,’ this piece is about self-love and dissecting your insecurities.

Published by Strwbry Jean Zine
