The long-awaited 2nd poetry collection 'The Time is Now' is finally here!
 
“Abbi Jinks’ second collection features driving rhyme and rhythm, mirroring her energetic spoken word performances. These are poems of joy and positivity, finding the small wins in reaching the end of the laundry basket or spending time in nature. These are poems of the everyday but not the mundane; there are celebrations of surviving and thriving and the importance of creativity in making sense of the world. There are poems to make you laugh, to see the beauty in the seasons and to encourage you, the reader, to believe in and love yourself.”
- Dr. Cathi Rae, Poet and Educator
 
Abbi Jinks writes cheeky, funny, loveable rhymes and relatable poems that overflow with goodwill. This collection celebrates life, creativity, nature and the potential in every person. I defy you not to be both grounded and uplifted as you read these poems! Definitely worth putting down your phone for!”
- Jude Simpson, Poet and Entertainer
 
Preface from Abbi:
 
What are you waiting for? The time is now.
 
A while ago, I heard a story about a friend of a friend who was an artist. She was working on some pieces for an exhibition. She wanted 25 pieces ready before she would show her art. She’d never shared it. So she was busy working away at her collection, and then she died. She died with no one having seen her work.
 
For her end of life celebration her family got all her pieces, all her sketchbooks and all her work together and they shared it for her. But she wasn’t there.
Don’t wait. You don’t know what will happen tomorrow.
 
If you have a creative project, a passion, a spark to ignite, this is your invitation to go for it.
What are you waiting for? The time is now.
