Grace was runner-up for Zakiya McKenzie's masterclass 'Nature and Uncertainty', with ‘The ‘Green’- What a difference a year makes’
“For me poetry is simply a way of trying to make my mind a bit more calm. For this particular piece I was overwhelmed by the beauty of my surroundings and just incredibly grateful for them.
I really enjoyed this competition because it's taught me that poetry isn't embarrassing, it's actually pretty cool. I'm still writing but I have no plans. I just write when I feel the need to.”
