I'm taking a partial sabbatical from this blog to post about my tenure as Reader-in-Residence at the Shetland Library on Creative Futures. Hopefully see you there!
For the past six years, Shetland's landscape and language have persistently influenced my poetry and visual art.Since my second book Nigh-No-Place, won the T.S.Eliot Award in 2008, I’ve worked primarily as a poet, creative writing tutor, and classroom assistant, but walking, and gathering wild food and materials for my visual art-works, are as important in my creative life as my language-based practice. My third poetry collection, Byssus, is due to be published early 2014.
