Charley Barnes is the current Worcestershire Poet Laureate (2019-2020). Her work is widely published across poetry journals, and Body Talk follows Charley's first poetry pamphlet, A Z-hearted Guide to Heartache, which was published by V. Press in 2018. Alongside her poetry, Charley also writes crime fiction under the moniker C. S. Barnes (published by Bloodhound Books).

Charley's poetry aims to open conversations around the more difficult topics in life, and Body Talk embodies that aim. A hard look at our relationship with food, these poems are intended as a reminder to love ourselves a little easier - and to butter our crumpets generously.
