I'm a Scottish poet who has had over 15 pamphlet collections and 20 full-length book collections published by 12 different publishers, including Polygon, Smokestack Books, Red Squirrel Press, Salmon Poetry, Freight Books and Penniless Press.
I have done hundreds of readings over the last 35 years. My work has been translated into several languages including Romanian, French and Spanish. I run a small independent press. My collections often combine poetry, illustration and photography. (Photo credit: Iseult Timmermans)
