作者介紹
作者介紹 Colwill Brown was born and raised in Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Winner of the 2025 BBC National Short Story Award, she holds an MFA from the University of Texas at Austin, where she received a James A. Michener Fellowship, and an MA in English literature from Boston College. Her work has received scholarships and awards from the Tin House Summer Workshop, the Bread Loaf Writers' Conference, Hedgebrook, Ragdale, the Anderson Center, GrubStreet Center for Creative Writing, and elsewhere. For sixteen years she's lived with ME CFS, a debilitating neurological disease triggered by a virus that, due to systemic medical neglect, currently has no treatment. A proud Donny lass, she claims to have played bass guitar in (nearly) every rock venue on South Yorkshire's toilet circuit.
