Hi there!

I'm Naomi, but you can call me Nai (they/she).

I live on the stolen land of the Yugambeh people with my non-binary child Cloud (they/them) and our puppy Fern. I am a writer, researcher and homeschool teacher. My debut book, You Will Find Your Way, is a powerful collection of poetry for readers seeking comfort and inspiration after a toxic relationship. Readers have described the poetry collection as “strong, brutal and fearless”, “deep and relatable”, “raw and resonant”, “unapologetic, engaging and inspiring”, and “relatable, healing and hope-inspiring.” Purchase a copy of You Will Find Your Way or subscribe to my newsletter for a free sample of the book. I am so glad you are here and hope you enjoy what you read!

get to know me more!
