Hi, I'm Rachael and I believe in the importance of creating space for artistic pursuit, even when modern busy life makes it really super hard to do so. Poetry and its pursuit have and continue to bring me personal insight, peace, and profound joy, and I want to help everyone find that space and connect with the things they want and need to explore.I'm a Manchester poet and creative human; founder of The Space Poetic, a hybrid event bringing spoken and written poetry together in a monthly poetry gallery and open mic in Manchester's Northern Quarter; a current MFA student at The Manchester Writing School; poetry workshop and events facilitator; a 2024 Comino Poet in Residence; writer of ‘Letter as a jellyfish to all my ex’s, all of you’ which was awarded a runner up prize in Wirral Poetry Festivals’ 2024 Competition; writer at Poet Notes on Substack... oh and some of my poems have appeared in several small anthologies and been both long and shortlisted in some well known competitions including The Fish, The Plough, and Bridport Poetry Prizes. Recently my piece 'Venn diagram featuring working class wages and lemons' appeared on Ink Sweat and Tears. Anything else? Oh yeah, when I'm not busy wording I'm probably making friends with street cats, lolling around in sunny parks, or out rock climbing, hiking, and exploring. Why come to my workshops and events? Because they're a safe and welcoming space for anyone and everyone no matter your circumstances or previous experience to come and spend some time enjoying being creative :) I can't wait to write with you friends!
