| Introduction | My third poetry collection, 'Before we Breathe', was published in April 2021 by Littoral Press. It was longlisted in the Wales Poetry Book Awards 2022. ‘The Spaces in Between’, was published in September 2015 by Pinewood Press (Swansea). ‘Breakfast in Bed’, was published by Indigo Dreams in September 2019 and was shortlisted in the Wales Poetry Book Awards 2020. I have been nominated for a Pushcart Prize. I was Highly Commended in the 2019 Welsh International Poetry Competition and in the RS Thomas Festival Poetry Competition 2019. I was co-organiser of The Cellar Bards, the only regular spoken word event in Cardigan, for eight years. I’m a former chair of PENfro Book Festival, a member of the Rockhoppers poetry performance group and of Narberth Poets. There’s a fourth poetry collection on the way, but not exactly ‘soon’. |
