About the Author
Kate Williams's poems have appeared in many anthologies and magazines but this is her first solo collection. Kate spent her childhood in London, next door to a cat, a tortoise and some terrapins. She later moved to Bristol - in earshot of the zoo - and now lives in the rolling farmland of Wales, surrounded by baas, moos and cock-a-doodle-do's.
Hannah Asen was born and brought up in London. She studied art and languages at Edinburgh University and then went to live and work in Berlin, Germany. In 2017 she returned to Scotland and now lives in the East Lothian countryside close to Edinburgh. Hannah is also illustrator of Matt Goodfellow's poetry collection, Chicken on the Roof, published by Otter-Barry Books.
