Fond of travel and choral/classical music, and if they coincide I tend to write about it. Community library volunteer. Also freelance proofreader with a keen eye for dangling modifiers.
What a fantastic time in Cardiff at @requiemtocancer.bsky.social! Such a wonderful event for a wonderful cause. Thank you to the organisers, musical directors and soloists 🎶

Today’s poem is dedicated to all those who have taken it upon themselves to correct the grammar or spelling in my poems over the last few weeks.

It’s called ‘Pedents’.
