Taḋg Paul
Taḋg began writing poetry at the age of ten, continuing prolifically through his youth. His passions later carried him from the front lines of LGBT rights campaigning to performing on London’s fringe theatre scene, all while building a parallel career as a software developer and consultant. In 2022, an injury left him hospitalised for almost a year, followed by a lengthy period of rehabilitation. During that time, he rekindled his love of poetry and began writing once more—and hasn’t stopped since. He learned to create art through SII’s art project and now volunteers with Fighting Words, mentoring and illustrating for young writers. Having returned part-time to tech consultancy, he continues to write and create art.
He lives in Greystones with his dog, Toby.
