Substack writing

Writing

After Neve died, I began to write. Initially it was as a way to connect and communicate with her and with others. Over time, writing has gradually begun to have a therapeutic role, for me and some of my readers. Neve was full of character and her wit and vitality remained intact, despite her suffering and sorrow. I hope my writing can share the realities of life and of death, both the pain and the joy, the sorrow and the laughter.

Read about the 40 hours after Neve’s death on The Telegraph website or on Substack.

I publish my writing on Substack, accompanied by my paintings and an audio recording. I aim for my work to be broad and applicable to anybody who is likely to one day witness or experience death.
