Welcome!
Kia ora e te whānau, you beautiful humans! My name is Abby and I am a passionate writer, poet, musician and generally creative creature. I’m significantly weird, and I am infatuated by words and the power that they have.
You can expect content about:
- languages
- philosophy
- media, music and culture
- rainbow/LGBTQIA+ issues
- education and teaching
- religion and spirituality
- literally anything else I feel inclined to talk about
You’re welcome to peruse my website – thanks for hanging out, habibti!
