Where to Read Me

Picture
I am a novelist and short story writer. I gained a PhD in Creative Writing at Lancaster University, UK. My interests very much centre around women, memory, migration, diaspora and belonging.

My debut novel, A House With No Angels, was published by Crocus Press in 2019. I was longlisted for the SI Leeds Literary Prize in 2014 for my yet unpublished novel, Bloody’s in the Bible. I placed second in 2021 for the UK poetry competition We want to Dream for my poem On Writing Us. In 2025 my latest short story was long listed for the Commonwealth Writer's Prize and made it to the second round of the Bridport Prize.

My short fiction has been published in anthologies and literary journals, such as Midnight & Indigo Literary Magazine, USA and the recent speculative Fiction anthology, Glimpse, UK, edited by Leone Ross.
I have taught creative writing in tertiary education in the UK, Northern Iraq and Trinidad and Tobago since 2006 and have worked in  community settings for over 20 years. I still get inspired and excited at the opportunity to teach and learn.

Recently along with former students from the MFA Creative Writing programme I have been running writing retreats in Tobago. These retreats, inspire, give space and nurture writers in ways that they need to grow their craft.
