"I spent years waiting for someone else to make me a writer. Against the advice of many, I was pursuing a risky path, so I wanted a mentor, someone to show me how to do it right. I wanted to be transformed."

"It is easy to feel outnumbered, drowned out, disempowered. In pushing back against this, a marginalised writer’s language must become its own critical mass, capable of holding itself up, justifying itself."

"Finding my poetic compass wasn’t about shutting every single voice out; it was about figuring out which voices I wanted to listen to."

On finding a voice: "A budding writer needs to create a space for themself where they can experiment, try on different pieces without fear of failing. For me, this kind of trust was critical. "
