Poet, painter with work in the Public Catalogue, maker of filmed poems and the odd piece of guerrilla poetry in the wilds of Dumfries & Galloway. Carolyn has been a Director of the Scottish Writers Centre and was long listed for the Ted Hughes Award for New Work, 2015. She spends some of the year abroad in the National Booktown of Montolieu in the South of France and the rest of her time slogging at the chalkface of academia where she has been variously, a PhD Creative Writing supervisor, an external examiner of Creative Writing and a validator or Literature programmes. Carolyn's favourite stone is lapis lazuli, her favourite colour is fawn and her dream is to travel the world, meet interesting people & manifest a golden destiny full of joy for all humankind.
