Since the late 1970s her poetry has been published in many anthologies, most recently appearing in the Anthology of 20th Century British and Irish Poetry (ed Keith Tuma, American Oxford). Her writing has appeared extensively in both the UK and the USA. As an extension to her activities in poetry she collaborates with many musicians including Martin Archer, Charlie Collins and Julie Tippetts.
