Claire Jenkins

I’m an occupational therapist with the NHS and, in a previous life, I did a degree in Digital Forensics. In 2018, I was diagnosed with M.E./C.F.S. This has had a huge impact on my life and, as a result, my writing has become increasingly important to me.

I was shortlisted for the 2019-20 Retreat West First Novel prize before the competition was unfortunately cancelled. Over the past few years, I have had short stories published in the Writer's Magazine, Reflex Fiction, Retreat West, and as part of an anniversary anthology.
