Rosemary's debut collection 'A Recycled Marriage' (Cinnamon Press, 2021) was an Eludia Award Finalist, and includes the semi-autobiographical 'A Beginner’s Guide to Stammering', a frank and revealing account of the impact of a speaking impediment on everyday life. It was longlisted for the Bristol Prize (2018).
