how you'll find me after I haven picked up my phone for seven hours straight. #CNF#writer#londonwriter#booksky
My past was ugly. Yet it was preparation, for the NOW, which is the creation. #writer#booksky#londonpoet
and this is all it took to be the writer I was always meant to be #CNF#booksky#poet#londonwriter#RAVEN
“London. Michaelmas term lately over, and the Lord Chancellor sitting in Lincoln's Inn Hall. Implacable November weather. As much mud in the streets, as if the waters had but newly retired from the face of the earth..” -Dickens,”Bleak House” 📷 Hector Colard, “A Fine Day in London” #Booksky
the beauty of writing is the ability to create something valuable with nothing other than the pain and sorrow dragging you towards a pen and maybe a piece of paper - Ellie Ritter #poetry #booksky #writer #londonartist
Opening my bottom desk drawer and stumbling across a number of about fifteen fully handwritten notebooks, was definitely something I never would've intended. Each one filled with work I was too afraid to show the public. Then I said to myself, 'who am I to behold my work from the public?'
I'm Ellie, a London based writer and poet. I write about my life, without sugarcoating any part of it, where every word, no matter how tragic it appears to be, takes part in forming a rather strange persistence of hope.
