JULIA
DEAKIN was born in Nuneaton and worked her way north to Yorkshire via
Shropshire, the Potteries and Manchester. Each of her collections is
praised by leading UK poets. ‘Crafted, tender poems, written with
passion and purpose,’ said Simon Armitage of her first; her fourth, Sleepless (Valley Press 2018) is commended by Gillian Clarke. When not writing, or editing Pennine Platform magazine, Julia enjoys walking and ice skating. A compelling reader, she has featured twice on Poetry Please. www.juliadeakin.co.uk
