Enilles i'r gystadleuaeth englyn yn Eisteddfod Maenclochog efo'r englyn hwn. 'Taten' oedd y testun.
I won the englyn competition at the Maenclochog Eisteddfod with this englyn. The theme was 'Potato'.

Just finished this cracking read from @saraerddig , newly published by @serenbooks . (It's an update of the original 'Real Wrexham' by @grahame_davies , also published by Seren.)
It's a really enjoyable book. A very different way of searching out the character and identity of the city. š
So pleased that "THE BEAT - THE PULSE - THE WAVE" has arrived; the latest collection from top poet @hazardpressuk , published by @arachnepress . ššš
"beyond the next bend
is a blazing Heathcliff"

A rough translation:
Over some horizon, a door to the 'perhaps' of our world;
a remote road to joy,
a haunt of secrecy,
a leap into flame and flash.
This is the cover of 'Hen Ferchetan', my first book for Welsh learners. It was published in 2023 by @y_lolfa , illustrated by @thommorganillustration and edited by @meleriwynjames .
Ever since it appeared, there has been a little song of joy in my head, like tinnitus except with fol-de-rol choruses. š
Woo! Hereās a draft of the cover for āDim Ond GĆŖmā, my novel for Welsh learners about womenās football. Itās published by @y_lolfa and comes out on July 1st.
The cover picture is by the brilliant @thommorganillustration , who also illustrated my book āHen Ferchetanā. Thereās such a lightness to his work. Just looking at it makes my heart sing.
I only got this far with the novel thanks to support and very practical help from the inspirational, @meleriwynjames . #editorsrock! š
(And while Iām scattering thanks about with gay abandonā¦ if Y Lolfa was a person and I was a teenager then they would be my secret crush whom I worshipped adoringly from afar. Just saying. š)
Dwi mor gyffrous. Am y tro cyntaf, dwi wedi ennill gwobr mewn cystadleuaeth englyn. Roedd hwnna yn Eisteddfod Mynytho am englyn ysgafn gyda'r thema, Y Ddraig. Www! š¤Ŗ
Iām so excited. For the first time, Iāve won a prize in an englyn competition. This was at the recent Eisteddfod in Mynytho in the light englyn category with the theme, The Dragon. š
