'Leaf' is the first collection of poetry published by Joanne Van Leerdam. Lyrical, often metaphorical and always unashamedly honest, these poems are expressions of the poet's own experiences and observations about life, love and human nature.
Among all the different people in this world, there are two groups who invariably find each other: those who have trouble saying no, and those who take advantage of them. This quick and quirky self-help guide to saying no more effectively provides insights and tips on how to say "no" so that others know you mean it, and thereby reclaim your freedom from those who would readily exploit your generosity. A book for everyone who finds it hard to say no to people, but really wants to.
"Entirely without her knowing Anything of her divinity, She is a living, breathing goddess..." - HER DIVINITY 'Stained Glass' is poetry that reflects the light and shade of life, and all the colours in between. The poet celebrates the strength and extraordinary resilience of women through the exploration of diverse issues, including love, loss, social expectations, self-awareness and personal integrity. In rare moments the glass is rose-coloured; elsewhere, the window is astonishingly clear.
Uncomfortable truths, observations about life, and unashamedly honest responses to hateful people make this collection of poems highly relatable and deeply, darkly satisfying.

Curious Things. Stories about a black cat, superstition and strange events. Friday is a black cat with a lucky habit of being present when curious things take place. He's highly intelligent, fiercely loyal and devilishly handsome.

Friday, the magical black cat with a devilish sense of justice, returns in a second collection of macabre and darkly humorous stories. Set at significant times of the year, these stories celebrate key events while Friday delivers his own brand of feline justice to people who fully deserve what's coming to them. If you have ever wished for revenge, or taken pleasure in seeing horrible people get their just desserts, this book is for you.
People experience all kinds of night: loneliness, grief, depression, anxiety, fear, pain, and countless other darknesses. This collection of profound lyrical poems explores the poet's own experiences and observations of both dark and light, revealing her determination to not only survive, but to conquer whatever tries to overcome her. At the end of it all, the poet demonstrates that the smallest sign of light is enough to help a wandering soul find hope in the passing of the night. " Intensely personal, at times almost uncomfortably confessional, these poems bare the author's soul to the reader. Ultimately, she triumphs over despair, but it is a hard-won battle, and we sense the fight continues. We take comfort in knowing she will never surrender." - Reviewer
