Hi!

I started this substack because I wanted a place where my writing would be safe, where people who actually cared about it could read it, and where I could free myself from the slightly sickening feeling social media gives me. (Looking at you IG).

My substack is named Aphrodisia, but it’s not (necessarily) about sex! I want this place to convey yearning, passion and desire as that’s often how I read and write - in an all-consuming, urgent kind of way. Always hungry for more. Pretentious, I KNOW.

My aim is to publish new work every fortnight. I say aim because I’m a gigantic writing cliche and my creative ~flow~ doesn’t give a shit about deadlines and consistency and expectations and what have you. Also, more importantly, I have chronic pain and sometimes my brain is too busy being on fire to make pretty words. Unpredictability will be the only consistency.

I know that goes against all the advice on successful blogs, but I can’t really set a standard for myself that is unhealthy or inconsistent with reality. It would also be incompatible with the intentions of this page, which is for me to have an outlet for my work and - I hope - for you to enjoy reading them.

If you like my work, please tell me sometimes! It makes me practically vibrate with joy, and then the only thing I want to do is make more and more and more.

Thank you for being here x
