Hi folks!

I’m Jo! (they/them) I write all the time but I’ve never taken part in this event before, I’m very excited! (I’m doing the half marathon.) I’ll be staying in my friend’s flat on my own the entire time to make sure I don’t get distracted and because his flat is very cozy too haha. I’m a part of several writing circles, I’m also an English teacher in France and a massive pet lover I mostly write about queerness, love, neurodiversity, trauma, mental health and love (platonic and romantic). In case you’re interested, my work has been published in Anti-Heroin Chic (June issue), Horse Egg (June issue), Gnashing Teeth (One poem a day challenge in April) and soon in the Pride issue of The Adriatic. Can’t wait to read your beautiful words!
