I am a published non-fiction author, my book Visualising The Beatles was published by HarperCollins, and has since been translated into four languages, with publishing deals in the UK, Spain, France, Germany, and Brazil. I am signed to Defiore & Co literary agency in New York.
I am also a published poet, with poems published or upcoming in Poetry Review, Cordite Poetry Review, New Ohio Review, Poetry Online, and many others. I have an MA in creative writing from the University of Sussex, and an MFA in poetry from Manchester Metropolitan University.
My work has been featured in Forbes, The Guardian, the BBC, AOL, Book Riot, The Washington Post, The Bookseller, Metro, The Mirror, and many others.
