About Lucy - 
A creative thinker, word tinkerer and wearer of many hats.
I believe that the best stories are the ones hidden in plain sight, a dropped shopping list lingering in a trolley, a note to self-scribbled on the back of a hand, a once forgotten fleeting moment filed away in a library of memories.
We are all made of stories and I am hugely passionate about helping others bring their words and stories alive on a page.
I love to dive behind the everyday ordinary and find something extraordinary.
I run creative writing workshops, regular co-writing sessions and have created Small Acts of Attention a set of word cards that can be used to help kindle your imagination.
My writing and poetry has appeared in Popshot Magazine, Strike Magazine, The Lit Platform, Lionheart Magazine, A Thousand Word Photos, Dear 2020 Zine, Reasons to be Cheerful, Why Mums Are Amazing by The Mum Poem Press, Gingernut Magazine, Blood Moon Journal and many more. I have performed at Telltales in Falmouth, for the The Mum Poem Press and for SproutSpoken at Tunes in the Park Festival and for their immersive outdoor project You Are Here. I was co-host of Calliope's Writers Community for mother writers from 2023 to 2024.
I have an MA in European Cultures from Birkbeck University. In 2022, I completed an MA in Professional Writing at Falmouth University and received a distinction for my final project. In summer 2023, I completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Teaching Creative Writing at Cambridge University and was awarded a distinction.
