I’m  Helen Lowe, a novelist, poet, broadcaster, and lover of  story. This blog is going to be a work-in-progress for a while in terms of its “look”—but in terms of content I’ll be focusing on my writing, so expect to see plenty here about both novels and poetry, what’s coming up and what’s happening, as well as the interviews I do on radio—and I hope there’ll be a few online interviews showing up here!

But it won’t just be my creative work: I’m looking forward to having conversations around what I’m reading now, the books I’ve loved reading in the past as well as creative influences from other areas.  I also love food and wine, trees, getting out into wild places . . . as well as having a little cat buddy who likes to have his share in the conversations. So hope to keep that promise of “anything really …”

So for the moment, this is just “hello”, but like Arnie in the Terminator movies, “I’ll be back!”
