Poetry
I have a great deal of experience running writing workshops for
adults. I have worked for the WEA in Derbyshire and in Sheffield,
taught Creative Witing at Bretton Hall, and am now a part-time
lecturer on the Experience of Writing course at Derby University.
I recently took over the editorship, with Elizabeth Barrett, of
STAPLE, a magazine with a long established reputation which publishes
poetry and short fiction. I prefer working with adults, but will
consider work with sixth form groups in schools or in Further
Education.
