I am delighted to announce that I am one of the 12 selected writers for the 2021 Literature Wales writer development award . It is a tremendous honour to be in this wonderfully talented group that includes national writing award-winning poets and writers. Alongside the yearlong masterclasses and workshops with noted professionals from the writing and publishing world, I get the opportunity to work with multi-award-winnning poet and writer Zoë Brigley as my mentor. I am planning to use the mentorship and support to develop my poetry and short fiction, submit to more publications with the eventual aim of working towards future collections.
