I am a writer and practitioner working in the north west. I work with schools, libraries, galleries, universities, and other practitioners and institutions delivering the creative arts. I have an MA in Creative Writing and an ACWE (Association for Creative Writing and Education) accredited teaching qualification. My workshops are often multifaceted, using art, film, music, photography, objets d'art and the written word to unlock and capture our most creative thoughts and ideas.
