Jo Gatford

Jo Gatford is a writer of all sorts — from short fiction to screenplays. She makes theatre whenever she possibly can and edits other people’s words for a living. She’s a massive Shakespeare nerd, has an obsession with weird 16th century sea monster art, and wants to be a cowboy when she grows up.

Her chapbook The Woman’s Part was published by Stanchion, and her novel White Lies was published by Legend Press. Her work has been selected for the Wigleaf Top 50, Best Small Fictions, Best Microfictions, and published all over the shop, including The Fiction Desk, HAD, Smokelong Quarterly, and Stylist. She lives in Brighton with her husband, kids, and supervillain dog.
