I am a poet committed to making experimental work which inspires people to question social norms and consider alternative myths, narratives and ways of living.
Since 2010 I have published poetry in a range of magazines and journals, including Magma, Poetry Wales, The Rialto, The Stinging Fly and The White Review. My poems have been anthologised by publishers including Viking, Bloodaxe and Salt. I have published two pamphlets of poetry and a broadside.
Oedipa (Guillemot Press, 2018)
24/7 Brexitland (No Matter, 2020)
Propositions (Monitor Books, 2020)
In 2012 I was awarded a scholarship to support my PhD research in Creative Writing. My doctorate was completed in 2017. In 2016 I won a Northern Writers' Award for Poetry.
I have delivered successful creative writing workshops for a range of organisations, including Aberystwyth University, Edge Hill University, The Northern Lights Writers’ Conference, Nottingham Trent University, The National Creative Writing Graduate Fair, Waterside Arts Centre and Wordpool Festival.
As a performer I have appeared at venues including The Royal Exchange Theatre, The Arnolfini Gallery, The Open Eye Gallery, Edge Hill Arts Centre, Free Verse Poetry Book Fair, Goldsmith's CCA, The Whitworth Gallery, Aberystwyth Arts Centre and Poetry Emergency Festival.
