Judith Kingston writes poetry, fiction and shopping lists.

Her poetry has been published in a variety of literary magazines and anthologies, such as Barren Magazine, Riggwelter, Kissing Dynamite and Ghost City Press. The latter also published her microchap, Mother is the Name for God, in their 2020 Summer Series. Most recently, her poetry has appeared in Crossing Lines: an anthology of immigrant poetry (Broken Sleep Books). It has also been performed as part of a number of theatre productions. She is currently working on a collection of poems entitled Rich and/or Famous, featuring encounters with the likes of Nick Cave and Tinky Winky, and two young adult novels. She never looks at the shopping lists and usually comes home with only half of the ingredients for five different meals.
