Rosie Garland has a passion for language nurtured by public libraries, & Val McDermid has named her one of the most compelling LGBT+ writers in the UK today. An award-winning poet, novelist and short story writer, she is frontwoman for post-punk band The March Violets. Poetry collection What Girls do the Dark (Nine Arches Press) was shortlisted for the Polari Prize & latest collection This Is How I Fight was Observer Poetry Book of the Month. Her poetry and fiction - described by The Times as “a delight…with shades of Angela Carter” - looks beneath the skin to the multitudes inside: galaxies, creatures, wicked queens & fire - all itching & roaring to be seen.
