“Through the eyes of Emma, we see and feel the turmoil of the hidden soul that is trying to make sense of an incongruent outer world. Questioning the status quo of many idealised perceptions society holds, the rigid rules that are thrust upon us come crashing down throughout Making Waves. Feel the ripples of peace being spread upon a sea of calm as you begin to see from a higher vantage point.”

Beautiful poetry shared through the eyes of a young person who is naturally questioning the world around her.
How many young people feel trapped in the systems and structures of today’s society? I think there are more than we realise. Emma’s work is a glimpse at how she began to step out of the system, freeing her heart and mind through writing poetry.

How refreshing to see someone sharing their thoughts, feelings and emotions in such a creative and entertaining way. Such a readable little book, one that you can open randomly and find thought provoking nuggets of wisdom and inspiration. A perfect bedside read!

Great work from a talented writer and performer. Brilliant to have been able to film some of her spoken word pieces.

Beautifully written, Emma’s book is the embodiment of the collective voice...one heart, one voice. We feel and share that same inner turmoil and confusion, the same longing to move beyond the status quo. The voice within wants to be heard and expressed, and Emma does that so beautifully through her poetry. Let this little book be an inspiration for others, to allow their own inner voice to be unleashed and to express itself in its own authentic way; after all we’re all part of the same ocean, but just different expressions of that ocean xxxxxx

Have known Emma since she was a little girl and she has blossomed in to a beautiful caring adult. She is inspiring in all she does for her love of mankind and animals. Her book "Making Waves" will surely be the first of many. It's the inspiration for the youth of today. Well done Emma - I'm privileged to know you xx

Clearly a very talented young lady, with a great future ahead of her, young people are our future and the future looks bright with Emma’s talent and enthusiasm. I’m sure she will empower more young people to get involved with the arts and also nurture and encourage others ! Brilliant and inspiring

This thought provoking little book lives beside my bed. Emma opens her heart and reveals her innermost thoughts. Making Waves is beautifully written as concerns about the future, love for family hopes and dreams are expressed. This is a wonderful achievement for Emma who has a bright future ahead of her #poetry #spokenword #spokenworld #standup #newwriting #lifewriting #poetsofinstagram #poems #makingwaves
