I was born in 1950. I live in Cardiff, Wales with my husband, son, daughter and two cats, and teach creative writing at the University of Glamorgan. I have published ten collections of poetry and translations, plus a Selected Poems and two novels. I also wrote "The Democratic Genre: fan fiction in a literary context" (Seren 2005), a study of fan fiction in the context of canon-based writing. I translate poems mainly from German but sometimes also from French and Ancient Greek. I read German and Russian at the University of Bristol.
