Hi, I’m Charlotte!

Welcome to Ink Dries, my little corner of the internet filled with my musings on the world. I’m a 21-year-old writer and English literature student from the south of England, working out how I’m going to cope in this big scary world post-graduation.

Why not have a look around? Hopefully you’ll find something that catches your eye!

Journalist

This year I have written for national publications such as the Metro UK and Blogosphere Magazine. Prior to this I volunteered my time working on The National Student site and my university magazine The Stag.

Check out my portfolio to see examples of my work, or the ‘best bits’ tab for my favourite articles.

Creative Writer

I have been writing poetry since the age of 16, sharing my work on YouTube for a number of years before taking some time away to refine my craft whilst studying Creative Writing as part of my degree at university.

Check out the YouTube and Writing sections for examples of my poetry.

Speaker

Theatre has been a huge part of my life from a young age. I studied drama at school until AS Level and since then it has remained a core interest of mine. I plan on getting involved with TEDx at my final year of university and having a dabble at presenting for the first time too.

About Me

I am a 21-year-old writer from the south of England, about to go into my final year at university studying English Literature with Creative Writing. I am a huge lover of Bastille, Gilmore Girls and How I Met Your Mother, and will always say yes to a cup of tea!
