Admissions: Voices within Mental Health

I have not updated my website for quite a while now, and not much since the pandemic. Firstly, the Pandemic really slowed me down, I was still writing and working but my circle of contacts really closed. Alongside that so did my reaching out, but I was still writing, performing, and working and so still getting things done artistically. Secondly, someone bought my original web address and tried to sell it to me. Once I got the site back up and running and logged in, I found a draft post underway for a publication and saw so much that I need to update. But I am back here to post about the recent publication of Admissions: Voices within Mental Health.

Admissions: Voices within Mental Health was published in October 2022 by Upswell Publishing. The anthology contains an amazing breadth of voices. I am still working my way through it. Like another anthology, Solid Air, dipping into it at random has been my approach and in doing that I have so far loved the essay, IF I SMELL GAS AND THERE IS NO GAS or AM I A PSYCHOANALYST IF I DON’T HAVE A COUCH by Pascalle Burton, and the poems Suicide Dogs by David Stavanger and Hard Pressed by Grace Tame, and Learning from Shastra Deo.

Make sure you grab a copy from Upswell Publishing, and like me, recommend it to any mental health professionals you see.
