I am a poet from Dalkey, a coastal suburb to the south of Dublin city. At the moment, I am based at the University of Liverpool, where I teach Creative Writing. To date, I have published three books, two collections of poetry (Thumb's Width and MUDe) and a Creative Writing treatise (How to Write a Poem). My current writing projects include a critical book for Seren, called Poetry and Privacy. I review poetry fairly widely, having written at various times for the London Review of Books, The Times Literary Supplement, and The Guardian.
