Hello! I'm Ali - writer and poet from Manchester.
This website is for anyone interested enough to find out more about me and my work. I'm writing a book right now,
'Unearthed', a narrative memoir sharing the amazing journey I've been on.
There's a list of my activity, giving you an idea of the sort of stuff I do.
If you'd like to read some of my poetry, there's 'Days of Grace' and 'We're all new to this'. More recent activity is 'Stay a while longer', a poem written for a fundraiser for Samaritans.
There is also the 'The Song of Ryebank Fields', a call to the city of Manchester. I have been shortlisted for the Manchester Culture Awards 2024 in the 'Promotion of Environmental Sustainability category.
Connection is a big thing for me. In 2022, I was lucky enough to do a talk at the very first TEDx Warrington - 'Everything is connected, connection is everything'.
A few years ago I published 'Soul Survival Guide'. I've evolved since then but you might like to take a look.
