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!
