Hello! I'm Ali - writer and poet from Manchester.

This website is for anyone interested enough to find out more about me and my work. I'm writing a book right now, 

'Unearthed', a narrative memoir with accompanying poems, sharing the amazing journey I've been on. 

There's a list of my activity, giving you an idea of the sort of stuff I do. 

 

This year, I was commissioned as festival writer for 2026's Earth Pathways Diary. Read all the pieces and see previous contributions. If you'd like to read some of my poetry, there's 'Days of Grace', my pandemic work 'We're all new to this' and 'Stay a while longer', a poem written for a fundraiser for Samaritans. There is also the 'The Song of Ryebank Fields', a call to the city of Manchester which was a finalist in the 2024 Manchester Cultural Awards. 

Connection is a big thing for me. In 2022, I was lucky enough to do a talk at the very first TEDx Warrington - 'Everything is connected, connection is everything'. 

A few years ago I published 'Soul Survival Guide'I've evolved since then but you might like to take a look.
