A prescription written for you alone
Not a list pulled from a shelf — a bespoke reading, hand-chosen for exactly what you are carrying, and made to keep.
What arrives
Four kinds of company for one particular season.
A handful of books chosen for your situation — with a note on why each one, for you, right now.
Poetry that holds the weight of the feeling without asking you to explain it.
Lines to keep close — the sentences to return to at 3am.
A short practice, chosen or written to sit alongside your reading. Stillness to go with the words.
All of it gathered into one beautifully designed keepsake, yours to return to whenever you need it.
Curious what arrives? See a real example — for grief or for anxiety.
How it works
Because a true prescription begins with real questions.
A thoughtful set of questions about what you are going through, what you love to read, and what you would rather avoid. The more you share, the truer the prescription.
I read your answers and hand-pick your books, poems, quotes and a meditation — then write the notes that tie them to you.
Your finished prescription arrives as a beautiful PDF within a few days — to read slowly, and keep.
The Personalised Prescription
After payment you’ll be taken straight to the questions.
Good to know
No. This is literary companionship, not medical or psychological treatment, and it isn’t a substitute for professional support. It is comfort, perspective and the right words at the right moment.
Yes — there’s a place in the questions to tell me it’s a gift, who it’s for, and any message you’d like included.
That’s welcome. The questions account for how much you read and in what form — and poems and quotes ask very little of your time.
