About

A bit about me.

I’m SSG, the writer behind The Rose Tinted-Monocle, a space for essays, stories, poems and random thoughts, shaped by history, language and faith. I write to make sense of the world, to pull at the threads that connect us to those who came before, and to share those ideas that stay with me.

Here you’ll find personal essays, creative writing, and the occasional mistake I’m sure. Indeed one of the main reasons for this website is to improve my writing and get me into the habit of writing regularly. If you’d like to say hello or talk about the work, you’re always welcome to get in touch.
