About Me
I am a writer working across fiction, life writing, essays, non-fiction & poetry. I’ve published three novels with Faber & Faber, eight books of poetry, three essay collections, a writers’ handbook & a biography.
I am a long-standing member of a music collective called Pablo’s Eye, for whom I write texts & titles.
I am Director of the Fiction Programme at Faber Academy, where I teach a variety of courses on fiction & life writing.
I also run a small press called Vanguard Editions, which publishes books of poetry, essays, stories, translations & art-writing plus, since 2020, the annual poetry magazine 14.
