Me & co-performer DennisJustDennis, Electric Picnic, Ireland

poetry workshop

I am a versatile writer and engage wholeheartedly in a range of genres and styles.
I am available for commissions, readings and performances, to design and run workshops, and to work collaboratively with other individuals, businesses and projects.

I have performed poetry across the UK and in Ireland, at arts and literary events, festivals, pubs, cabarets, gardens and other venues.

I enjoy working with children, youth, and adults, teaching a range of skills in creative writing and poetry and to encourage publication and performance. I am a tutor with Exeter WEA (Workers Education Association) and run classes at Dartington, Devon.

My work has been published in several magazines and anthologies, and previous projects have been funded by Arts Council England. I am currently furthering my skills in playwriting and writing for performance, collaborating in projects with other artists and writers.

I also hold a Diploma in Creative Writing and Literature from the Open University.

Please contact me directly via email or telephone with any enquiries.
I am also 'on the books' for DAISI (Devon Arts In Schools Initiative: http://www.daisi.org.uk/) and the national poetry organisation 'Apples and Snakes' ( http://www.applesandsnakes.org/)

I hold full CRB clearance to work with children and vulnerable persons and public liability insurance.
