I have written, read aloud and illustrated a new poem called ‘Resurrection Song’, which you can watch here on YouTube (it’s only 4½mins long!): https://youtu.be/X_Ce50LxkBE
I hope that it will bring you light, as well as raising some money for my neurosurgery
Reacting to ‘Wind and Truth’ as I listen along to the audiobook - watch the full video on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/bHySKITbIew
As part of my ‘Do Something You Love’ — Valentine’s Week Fundraiser for urgent neurosurgery — see my website for more info: https://www.jkrowbory.co.uk/2025/02/do-something-you-love/
