I am Maggie Watson, an Indie Author and Poet based in
Scotland.
My writing journey began in 2020 at the start of the pandemic.
I think we can all agree it was a very period (more so
I would say for anyone with mental health problems or living alone)
Putting pen to paper helped me cope with
the total sense of despair and isolation I felt at the time.
In December 2020, a publishing house released "The Madness of Corona" (my work).
I prefer not to talk about that book, but we all started somewhere!
I knew I could do better, and I wanted to do better!
In 2021, I self-published my first collection, "Me and my Shadow" and "Once Upon a Time".
Looking back, I was more interested
in the achievement factor than
concentrating on my writing!
Fast forward to now (2024),I am far prouder
of my work, and I have my fellow writers
on WP to thank for that, plus my time spent on IG.
My muse is anything that pops into my head basically,
though I do draw a lot on my life experiences.
Edge of Humanity, Spillwords, Harness, Glass Gates Publishing and Gypsophilazine have all published my work.
My work has been in three anthologies, and I have another three
collections of poetry self-published by myself.
I cannot imagine not writing now!
When I am not writing, I work voluntarily.
I also enjoy reading, listening to music, and walking on the beach.
I have CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), but it does not define me!
