Motherhood, life and other stories.

Welcome to my little online space! Please make yourself at home with a cup of tea or coffee, or a glass of wine (no judgement here) as you browse through. You’ll find articles on topics ranging from motherhood, to travel, mindfulness and even a little fiction sprinkled here and there. Writing and reading are a huge source of inspiration for me and it is this that brought Songs of Motherhood - Għanjiet l-Omm to life. SoM is a collection of writings and illustrations from local artists and writers on motherhood and its many facets. Browse the online shop to get your hands on the anthologies, as well as other related products.

words is very much a community - so if you would love to add your voice here, I invite you to get in touch and submit your writing. I’m always on the lookout for inspiring pieces across a number of different themes, and I’m sure I’ll be inspired by your words too.

Thank you for visiting and I hope you stick around for more.

Yours truly,

Robs x
