Gordon Anderson writes monologues, poems, short fiction and beasts that are tricky to classify, like the alien-looking creatures often found by deep-sea submersibles. Often writing about gender and terror, he has been a feature artist at open mic events JUKE and Where I'm Coming From. Separated from his long-term cat, he lives in Cardiff and is very tired right now.
Gareth Writer-Davies was shortlisted for the Bridport Prize in 2014 and 2017, and the Erbacce Prize in 2014. He was Commended in the Prole Laureate Competition in 2015 and was Prole Laureate in 2017. Other accolades include a Commended in the Welsh Poetry Competition 2015 and Highly Commended in 2017 .
His pamphlet 'Bodies', was published in 2015 by Indigo Dreams and the pamphlet 'Cry Baby' came out 2017. His first full poetry collection, 'The Lover's Pinch' (Arenig Press) was published June 2018. Gareth lives in Brecon.
