Spilled Ink & Coffee Stains is my debut poetry collection, published in March 2024 by Yorkshire Publishing House.

It explores the impact of connection, both romantic and platonic, on self-perception and identity. Blended with an appreciation of nature, particularly that of unkempt or abandoned spaces, the collection draws parallels between the natural and emotional facets of life. Spilled Ink & Coffee Stains contains custom illustrations by Australian artist Victoria Elise.

Spilled Ink & Coffee Stains was rated Number 1 on Amazon in three categories, and received a 5-star review from BBB accredited Readers’ Favourite, as well as commendations from the US Review of Books & Purple Dragonfly Book Awards. Spilled Ink & Coffee Stains has been featured in magazines such as Peninsula & Authentic Insider, as well as on Las Vegas Now TV in the Dawn’s Corner segment.
