Something more than Gibberish Episode 15 - Angela Psalm

In this episode, Stephanie and Rainier feature Angela Psalm (IG: @angela_psalm). This segment expounds on selected poetry by featured guests.

Many thanks to my co-host GeminiFox, her contributions to the discussions are always invaluable. We both extend our sincere thanks to our featured guest this week, the ever present Angela Psalm.

Angela Psalm (IG: @angela_psalm) is a Melbourne, Australia, based poetess who started writing at the tender age of 10 years old in her journals to make sense of her emotions and social landscape. While traversing through her love of sci-fi fantasy adventure books, particularly books on Arthurian Legend, Jane Austen collections, she found her love of sonnets in Shakespeare and the incredible Bronte Sisters in her mournful sadness.

While still very much in love with writing she gave up after she was told that she would never succeed by a mentor at the age of 20; while crushed she stopped writing. During that period away from writing she continued to consume books losing herself in their stories and journeys while she went into a career in Holistic energy work and remedial massage as well as business.

During the covid lockdown she found herself back into journal writing trying to find herself but instead of losing herself in the darkness, she used it as a tool to find herself again in writing on Instagram in August 2020. On the platform of belonging / sympatico, Angela found lifelong friends and all-encompassing love of poetry, reading the works of other poets. While Angela’s writing style can be dark and / or sensual, it’s only in search of light.

Do take any opportunity to connect with Angela on Instagram on the many channels she is a key part of, you will not be disappointed.
