Welcome to my little corner of the internet! I’m Priyanka a born and bred queer London gal with a proud British-Indian heritage.
Online, I perform and write poetry as PM — my stage name. Offline, you’ll either find me laying next to a stack of books in bed, or at an open mic night with a good cup of tea permanently glued to my hand. 🍵
Right now, I’m hosting AQ Art’s London’s open mic Shout: Live on Instagram, and studying Creative Writing & Publishing.
poetpri is my home for everything I do, from digitally drawn poetry to spoken word performances. It’s also part literary-blog, where you’ll find book reviews, a blog series combining mental health & writing, plus event reviews and more.
