Deborah Swift

Deborah Swift is a novelist and poet living in a village in the Lake District. She lives in an Edwardian terraced house covered in ivy, which overlooks the local park. The scenery and landscape where she lives are a big inspiration and feature strongly in my books, and also in my poems.
