As a result of living in Greece for more than a decade, and having also spent time in England, Scotland, Ireland, France, Germany, Hungary, Bulgaria, the former Yugoslavia, Russia and Turkey, as well as speaking several European languages, Jena Woodhouse’s background and writing reflect some transcultural influences. She is the author of twelve book and chapbook publications, including seven poetry titles, and her writing has received awards for adult fiction, children’s fiction and poetry. In 2024, her unpublished poetry collection Tidings from the Pelagos: a Polyphony was shortlisted in the Eyelands Book Awards, the only international book award hosted by Greece.
