Ending this year on a high with the final copies of DEDICATIONS arriving hot off the press from @if_a_leaf_falls_press ✨Full of very made up but also totally real dedications, that part of the book that all of us (no one) looks at and sets the whole tone (or is it needed?) ~ enjoy this playful pamphlet, it’s a limited run of 80, a massive thank you to Sam and O’Tong for creating, editing and designing this xAlso very excited to dive into @sarahhesketh new works that arrived in the morning post too (from the second image you can see my breakfast in hold to be an excited puppy about it all!) ✨Link in bio to buy a copy, but also stocked at some amazing bookshops and of course @if_a_leaf_falls_press themselves x by @elspethkwriting

The Egg of Whitechapel plays on my first encounter with Thuy-Han Nguyen-Chi’s artwork. Focusing on the eggshell, originally sent to me in a video by a guy I met on a dating app, I used it as a focal point to negotiate my feelings of being with another person again. When I visited the gallery, I ended up projecting my vulnerabilities onto each artwork, questioning who I was in London, using the creative essay form to replicate my thoughts.Really excited to share that I was one of the lucky runners up for the Whitechapel Gallery Young Writers Residency. Congrats to fellow runners up Danielle Sargeant and Esther-Rennae Walker, and winner Yulin Huang ~ I’m excited to see what comes out of the residency! You can read all our work online now, and see how we all interpreted the latest exhibition 🥚(Guess I kinda need to also thank Hinge and my date at the time as well… ) @duchampandsons @whitechapelgallery by @elspethkwriting

Objects Objects Objects Back to sharing the wonderful Experimental Writing Retreat after a hectic trip home! Our writers/artists were given the challenge since day one to create an object that was also a written piece which we shared on the last morning together! Alongside this on day three we took inspiration from Ponge and Han Kang to explore close looking at the object through various exercises, before using the amazing artworks in @eona.chios from their @descoverartists past residents to create ekphrastic writing pieces! I’m still in awe of the group and miss being in our home in Greece explore all things writing! #writing #greeceresidency #writingcommunity #languagearts #making by @elspethkwriting

Looking at how writing is a bodied practice, walking is research and how we present space will always alter it! Day 2 started with a walk to the monastery at the top of the hill, being present, taking notes in various forms on our way there, and collecting together to form a map collaboration after.Looking at Perec, Lauren Elkin, Sam Selvon, Bhanu Kapil, Camilla Nelson and many more to focus on three ways to access space: form, Psychogeography, and Oulipo constraints This group is a little bit amazing with the amount they give and the work we are producing ~ grateful for the generosity and the passion ~ keep an eye out for more shots of bts on the Experimental Writing Retreat in @eona.chios #writingretreat #greekretreats #writingcollective #movement #embodimentpractice by @elspethkwriting
