Naomi Madlock
Naomi Madlock is an exhausted poet from Bristol. Her work has appeared in Renard Press, Razz, Agapanthus Collective and others. At the University of Exeter, she was awarded the Gamini Salgado prize for her poetry collection She Writes in Golden Ink: A Hive of Poems Celebrating the Femininity of the Honeybee. Her work draws inspiration from nature to articulate themes of stagnation, resilience and surrender. You can find her on Twitter @naomimadlock.
Gwil James Thomas
Gwil James Thomas is a poet, novelist and inept musician. He lives in his home town of Bristol, England but has also lived in London, Brighton and Spain. His poetry can be found widely in print and online in places such as Viper’s Tongue, Haikus, Fauxkus, Nearkus and Fuckyous and DFL Lit. He has been nominated for The Best of The Net twice and once for The Pushcart Prize. He was also once a member of the band Irreparables (Nominal Records). He is part English, part Welsh and part wolf. Instagram: @gwiljamesthomas
Paul Sims
Paul Sims, during a fairly uneventful life, has long been a secret artist and author. Inspired by surrealism, he has produced paintings, photography as well as narrative fiction. He is currently experimenting with poetry and has published a few items with Between Shadows Press. Paul, in general, is starting to go public with his scraps of creation; trying his luck and seeing, given reaction, whether he will continue to share or retreat back to secrecy.
