About Me

I’m a poet, short story writer and teacher from the North West. I’m lucky enough economically to have a full-time job, and lucky enough temperamentally that I find this sort of writing relaxing in my spare time, so I have no plans to charge for subscriptions.

I'm Mike Conley, a poet and teacher from Northern England. I like doing close analysis of poems. My project: an A-Z of the poets on my bookshelves: analysing one poem from one living and one dead poet for each letter of the alphabet.
