LIVERPOOL'S RESIDENT SHINY-WHINEY, NUDY-RUDY, NON-BIN, KWEER POET.
My poems come from the body, I use poetry as a tool to explore links between the psychological and the physical, the somatic and the sensual. Can a poem make you jump? Is your heart beating faster?
​
My pamphlet, Springing from the Pews, was published this May with Broken Sleep Books, and I'm so incredibly proud of it, along with my Distinction M.A. in Poetry, from MMU!
​
I'm the Co-founder of Queer Bodies poetry collective, and Marketing Assistant at Broken Sleep Books.
I've facilitated poetry workshops at University of Liverpool ISS, Heart of Glass, Many Hands One Heart, CFLA, Flood Theatre, and Liverpool Cares.
​
I was awarded the Artist Development Grant from FACT Liverpool, and HOMOTOPIA, in 2020.
​
I'm an award winner at Creative Future Literary Awards, 2017, and my poetry has been commended in ‘The Magma Poetry Competition’, and ‘The Cafe Writers Competition’.
Find my poetry @ Broken Sleep Books, ​The Rialto, Rattle, The Tangerine, Synaesthesia, Important Nothings Anthology, RFD, Tilt, and​ Lambda Literary.
