collections are published by Bloodaxe Books. Her third, Grace, was

Worcestershire. She began writing poetry seriously during a stint as a
volunteer at the Wordsworth Trust in Grasmere before arriving in Norwich to do
an MA in Creative Writing at the University of East Anglia. Since then she’s
been involved in the poetry world as an editor and teacher. She currently lives
on the Norfolk/Suffolk border and works as Communications Manager for Norfolk
