    Barking Back at the Cat-Callers!

    At the beginning of the year, like many of us, I had a few different plans for projects that have since changed or been cancelled all together.

    What're you reading?

    I've been dabbling in and out of books for they past few weeks. I've just started 'Nasty Women'. It's a collection of essays, interviews and accounts on what it is to be a woman in the 21st century. And the women do not hold back... "Nasty woman" was a phrase used by Donald Trump to refer to oppone

    Expectations

    During my last counselling session, I was asked: “What would your child self think of you?” I felt a lump in my throat as I responded, “She’d be disappointed in me.” But by the end of the session, I realised something. My expectations for myself have always been set too high, so of course I never me

    Leading Lady Parts

    Following on from Mariana's post about the 'Casting Couch' check out this video, a satire about casting, funny, but sadly all too true. I would love to know your thoughts ladies? What experiences have you had? As a female director, I definitely experience misogyny in work places, and see male count

    Hey All, So it's day 10 for me... and I thought it was time to share the things I've thought, experienced, learnt about myself and others. First things first I've realised how much I need the interaction of others; be that colleagues, loved ones, friends or even strangers. Physical touch, greetings

    8th December - Camille Claudel's Birthday!

    Google has just reminded me that today is the birthday of Camille Claudel, an amazing (female) sculptor. She seems to have had a lot to deal with in her life, and may have suffered with mental illness, but she managed to create beautiful art and express herself, at a time (she was born in 1864) whe

    Finding Your Voice // Act Now

    As creatives, it's our time to use our voices. “As an activist, you have to act.” I attended the "Finding Your Voice" event by the Fawcett Society which empowered me to think about how I approach my art. As someone who supports positive change in the world. I try to seek value in all my pursuits

    Women and Women's bodies.

    Inspired by Sarah's post, and similarly my therapy sessions, I want to discuss women's bodies and body types, especially with it getting closer to summer. I'm not particularly good at wording things how I think them in my head but I'm going to have a go haha! I'm personally on the heavier side and

    What type of artist are you?

    Is anyone interested in doing my survey on MBTI personality types? I was just thinking it might be interesting to see if we all have wildly different results or really similar, as we've all got creative interests… So I've made my first ever Google poll! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe1S

    The inspiration behind 'The Ghostly Ex'

    On 2nd September 2018, to be exact. I found myself typing away like crazy late at night. What was the inspiration? All the things I would say to my ex if I had the chance. I found writing the script for this film was very therapeutic, it helped me voice what I had felt for many years...'That I fail

    Casting Couch

    Some days ago, a friend of mine asked me to fill a questioner about “Casting Couch”. I was not familiarized with this term so I was immediately intrigued about all those questions. I just couldn’t imagine myself, as an actress, going through a situation like that. Straight after I start to search fo

    sally potter and the best time to start is now

    During my 1:1 with amelia yesterday, looking at film, we came across this from film maker Sally Potter, I think it's a brilliant statement that can apply to any creative work.... The best time to start is now (don’t wait) Take responsibility for everything (it saves time) Don’t blame anyone or anyth
