Variety of interests including but not limited to: literature, creative writing, music, greek mythology, nature and film.

  • Second year English student at the University of Exeter with an interest in creative writing.
  • Looking to expand experience with journalistic writing, so decided to try something new out this year!
  • Very interested in nature, particularly the coastline, as I'm from very rural south west Wales.
