Back to where it all began…
Before I explain tomorrow’s new Substack structure (hello Cultural Cwtch analysis + feminist rage!), I’ve got something for the OGs…
This one’s for those who first signed up to my blog during my fertility-101 days.
👶💉🥚
It’s a no-nonsense, sweary, back-to-basics IVF primer — perfect if you’re going through it, thinking about it, or just wondering WTF actually happens in the process.
Expect hormones, omelettes… and a sperm spa.

If it resonates, please give it a like, share it, or subscribe to the Substack.
Your support keeps it all going!

My @KylieMinogue book dropped in November, but I’m bringing it back to celebrate Ms. Minogue’s birthday month (next month)! 🎉
Technically my third book (self-pub counts, right?), but my first with a publisher — and it kicks off a series on legendary women in music.
Grab your copy and let’s celebrate Kylie! 📚💖

New blog klaxon!
I've written a special piece for @pen.and.sword.books to mark Kylie’s birthday and the close of the UK Tension tour.
It's part tour reaction, part book update, part ode to how a glitter-drenched Kylie banger is the closest thing to a cwtch on a drizzly Monday in Wales 💖

I'm writing so much at the minute and spinning so many plates that actually sharing the stuff on social media has become a slog. There's probably 3 or 4 blogs I've written and not gotten round to sharing so here's last week's cwtch if you fancy checking it out.

She’s done it 🎄✨
@KylieMinogue has the UK Christmas Number 1 with XMAS.
I held this Cultural Cwtch back until the charts dropped because some moments deserve to land properly. This one really does. It’s about longevity, instinct, smart modern pop, and why Kylie still understands the moment better than almost anyone.

If you’ve read Kylie Minogue Album by Album Stick or Twist, a review on Amazon or Goodreads would mean the world.
It’s cosy in here. Fancy a cwtch? 💚🎄✨

🎶 Last week’s Clary’s Cultural Cwtch covers a collection of songs that don’t shout, but linger. From Welsh indie to cinematic soul, these are the tracks that sneak under your skin and stay.
