[close] Born 1965, I live in a small English city with my husband and our two young children.

My first poetry collection was nominated for the Forward Best First Collection Prize. In 1996 I was joint winner of the BBC Wildlife Magazine Poet of the Year competition. In 2003 I won first prize in the bluechrome poetry competition. Last year I won the Seafield short story competition.

My short fiction has appeared in many magazines, including Ambit, The Reader, Feminist Review, and Stand.
