To celebrate National Poetry Day this Thursday 7th October 2021, you can listen to a reading of some poems from my recently published collection, The Redundancy of Tautology, from Cyberwit Publishing in April this year.
I thought it was a good opportunity to focus on my poetry for a moment, as since July I’ve been concentrating all my efforts on my forthcoming novel, The Buddha’s Bone.
Hope you enjoy listening. Feel free to leave a comment or follow my YouTube channel if you want to hear more samples of my writing. 😊
Leilanie Stewart is an author and poet from Belfast, Northern Ireland. She writes ghost and psychological horror, including award-winning novel, The Blue Man, as well as experimental verse. Her writing confronts the nature of self; her novels feature main characters on a dark psychological journey who have a crisis and create a new sense of identity. She began writing for publication while working as an English teacher in Japan, a career pathway that has influenced themes in her writing. Her former career as an Archaeologist has also inspired her writing and she has incorporated elements of archaeology and mythology into both her fiction and poetry.
In addition to promoting her own work, Leilanie runs Bindweed Anthologies, a creative writing publication with her writer husband, Joseph Robert. Aside from publishing pursuits, Leilanie enjoys spending time with her husband and their lively literary lad, a voracious reader of sea monster books. https://mailchi.mp/75c5a1ad6956/leilanie-stewart-author-info
