Eithne Cullen was born in Dublin and moved to London when she was six. She has had poems published in anthologies and magazines. She has published two novels: The Ogress of Reading and Never not in my Thoughts and a volume of short stories called Pencils and other Stories. She has had some success as a poet, was Hysteria Poet in residence in 2020 and published a pamphlet in 2021, called The Smell of Dust and was crowned Poet Laureate of Plumstead in 2022. She’s recently written some poetry which was used in the creation of a musical piece, A Better World is Possible.

She’s also delivered creative writing classes online for Pen to Print.  She lives with her husband in East London.
