My research is primarily concerned with twentieth and twenty-first century poetry in English, and especially the institutional and economic structures supporting the poetry industry. Recent publications include work on contemporary publishing, creative writing pedagogy, and the ethics of creative labour. I’ve also published six chapbooks of my own poetry.
