Autumn Reads
Outside, a magnificent transformation is taking place as leaves change colour, drift through the air and fall to become earth again. Autumn truly brings a feeling of slowing down, release and letting go.
I see this season as a reminder that reading, listening and observing are integral parts of the creative process, so I wanted to share an autumnal reading list filled with poetry, fiction and books on food, nature and creativity. All reflect both the season’s beauty and its invitation to turn inward.

Tap into creativity this autumn! Join me for workshops at Write & Shine on mist, deer and the autumn’s full, bright moons. This season, we’ll also consider creative rituals, looking in particular to women writers and artists. Explore the programme.
