Thanks for visiting my site! I’m Ruth Irons, author, musician, teacher, mother (in no particular order). I live in Kingston with my husband, and our two gorgeous daughters. A few years ago I started writing things down … short stories, flash fiction, picture book texts, interesting sentences … NOT poetry. I’m terrible at poetry – that’s one of the many things I’ve learnt so far that I wanted to share.

I hope you enjoy reading my ramblings and revelations about being bitten by the writing bug, and all the things that came next!
