Hi I'm Lily

‘The non poetry lovers’ poet’.

I hail from North Yorkshire and live in the Northeast.

I write poetry, kids' books, short stories, and non-fiction.

In addition to my books I have been published in anthologies and online.

I love music and I'm never far from being behind a camera.

I am currently studying for a degree with the Open University.

My vices are chocolate and Twitter/X. (@lifelovelily22)

I'm probably the most random person you will ever meet.

Find me on Substack Life with Lily - One sentence at a time or my website - Lily's Writing Life.

Everyone needs some Lily in their life! ...more
