I write speculative fiction and romance, and am particularly interested in eco-fiction, writing as a transformative process and writing and mental health.
I offer creative writing workshops across all levels and skills, and specialise particularly in teaching writing for wellbeing, writing practise and routines, group writing projects, voice, fantasy fiction, creative non-fiction and prose writing.
I have an MA with distinction in Creative Writing from York St John University, and run the Writing Tree, an organisation offering online creative writing services and support with an emphasis on writing for wellbeing, pleasure and personal development.
I am also Creative Writing Lead for Converge, a project at York St John University which offers educational opportunities for people who use mental health services. I am an associate lecturer in Creative Writing at the University of York.
