New Year's Resolutions: A collection of 30 poems about the hope, humour, and half-hearted heroics of a New Year

This year I won't shout 'Shoes!' twelve times before we leave... By Thursday, you're bribing with biscuits and muttering creative swearing through barely parted lips.

Sound familiar? New Year's Resolutions is a love letter to real women, the ones juggling gym intentions, family logistics, stretch marks, and self-worth, often while reheating the same cup of tea.

This is poetry that winks, sighs, and always understands.

From failed Dry Januarys to emotional laundry days, from the chaos of motherhood to the grace of ageing honestly, these 30 poems celebrate imperfection in all its everyday glory.

Blending wit, tenderness, and the kind of truth you only say to your best friend, this collection is:

For the woman who is tired of aspirational nonsense
For every resolution that lasted until Tuesday

Perfect for reading aloud, gifting, or quietly laughing over at midnight with biscuit crumbs on your pyjamas.
