Rebecca Gethin
Rebecca’s poems have appeared in numerous publications, and she gives regular readings around Devon. She lives on Dartmoor, but also spends time in the Italian Maritime Alps, where her ancestors lived; and both of these areas are reflected in her poetry. She teaches creative writing to prisoners, and has recently finished writing her first novel.
