Her musical collaborations include the psychogeographical collective Parking Non-Stop and sound art/poetry performances with Alan Holmes.[3]

As Editor of Poetry Wales.[4] from 2008 to 2014, she maintained the magazine's international focus and broadened its scope to include more experimental forms of poetry.[5]

In 2018 she received a Cholmondeley Award from the Society of Authors for the achievement and distinction of her body of work and her contribution to poetry. Her collection Footnotes to Water won the poetry category in the Wales Book of the Year awards, 2020.[6][7]
