For the second year running, I’m a lot in the Mari Lwyd Charity Auction in aid of Refuge run by the amazing Skulls and Sheets! Last year, a signed copy of Everyday Folklore was auctioned off, this year the lucky bidder will get a bespoke haiku written by me on the folklore subject of their choice. So if you’re after a totally original stocking filler, please consider challenging my syllables and bidding on me. And if haikus aren’t your thing, the other lots are amazing postcards of Mari Lwyds by different artists. Please spread the word about the auction, the money raised is going to charities that support survivors of domestic abuse. You have until Sunday 8 December to get your bid in, so get thinking about what you want me to write about! Thank you!
By the way, if you need a wee Mari Lwyd refresher, you can read all about her here…
Also, I’m mainly on Bluesky and Instagram now, come and say hello!
