About

Audrey Niven

Audrey grew up on the outskirts of Glasgow and lives in London. She is a recovering workaholic who spent far too much of her life in the corporate world of advertising and research before coming to her senses. Life is now more creative, if not as profitable.

She has written in most forms – performance poetry, short stories, drama, stand-up, novels and, most recently, flash fiction and has had prizes in all of them. You can read some of her work on the Porftolio page.

She reads for the Bath Short Story Award, Retreat West Quarterly Flash Fiction Competition and Retreat West Opening Chapter Competition. She also created and runs The Propelling Pencil Flash Fiction Competition.

Graduate of the Faber Academy and serial Arvon Foundation student, she is currently working on a novel.
