“I've known Yasmin - writer, mentor and - that rare thing - down-to-earth, academic - since her Home and Place Writing first captivated me. Her Substack combines text, photography, and video into a true resource. She shares her journey from landlocked Cambridgeshire to Scotland's shores, exploring seaweeds, tides, and dilapidated spaces that, like Ballard's abandoned casino, 'push readers off-balance.' Subscribe to experience her unique perspective on how environments shape our experiences.”
Bee Lilyjones, Before We Leave with Bee Lilyjones and Friends
“I love Yasmin's writing about memory and place, and she has created a warm and friendly community with her Substack.”
