Kevin Cowdall

Kevin Cowdall was born in Liverpool, England, where he still lives and works. In all, over 200 poems have been published in journals, magazines, and anthologies, and on web sites, in the UK and Ireland, across Europe, Australia, Hong Kong, India, Canada, and the USA, and broadcast on BBC Radio.

His 2016 retrospective collection, Assorted Bric-a-brac, brought together the best from three previous collections (The Reflective Image, Monochrome Leaves, and A Walk in the Park) with a selection of newer poems). His most recent collection, Natural Inclinations, features fifty poems with a common theme of the natural world.

His poem for children, The Land of Dreams, was published on the Letterpress Project website, wonderfully illustrated by Chris Riddell.

Kevin’s novel, The Ghost in the Room, and his novella, Paper Gods and Iron Men, have received excellent reviews, and he has just released a new novel, Cosgrove’s Sketches.

All of Kevin’s books are available on Amazon.
