About Chris Fewings
I’m a writer, educator, and poetry geek in Birmingham, England. I wouldn’t claim the title of poet for myself, but that’s what other people call me. Poetry is in my bones.
I fell in love with poetry in my mid-teens, but didn’t really start writing it for another twenty years. More recently, I’ve written fiction, memoir, reflective pieces and lyric essays. You can read some of my poems here or order a copy of my book A Place to Keep My Shadow – drop me a line.
I have many years’ experience of performing poetry (both my own, and stuff by dead poets that I know by heart) and of facilitating writing groups.
“Chris Fewings is a poet of great invention, combining playfulness and deep seriousness with in a way I have always found wonderful.”
– Roz Goddard, author of Lost City and Spill
