Hi, I'm Nelly
The people I work with care about their impact on the world. They tend to be creative at heart, colourful in their approach and adventurous in their mission.
My favourite pieces to write are full of feeling and personality. Mostly this means bespoke poetry – to be read over a piece of branded film footage, to capture the essence of a festival for a flyer or to tell the story of a new product on a website.
You don’t just read poetry, you experience it - a poem can be a gesture like no other. Let me write you someplace new.
Journaling Wild is my weekly newsletter and writing community for women who want to experience the magic that happens when you pick up a pen.
Feel-good journaling, poetry and creative inspiration that builds confidence in your words and encourages you to write more often.
I’m also chief editor and cheerleader for a poetry community – Poetry Pals.
Modern motherhood is full of complexities and contradictions. You can feel lonely despite never having any time alone, be filled with joy and despair, deep love and a deep desire to escape to freedom. You can find connection, feel isolated, wonder how you are going to get through the day ahead and find strength you never knew you possessed, all within a few hours.
Motherhood minus the medals navigates the landscape of what it means to be a mother in the 21st century, in a role you can't prepare for, which can at once feel like the most valuable and least valued thing you'll ever do.
Nelly Bryce vents her frustrations, celebrates the magic, and embraces you along the way in this thoughtful, questioning and comforting collection of poems.
