On The Edge with Clare O'Brien
About the Substack
I write poetry, fiction and memoir and share ideas and imaginings from my croft by the sea in the Scottish Highlands. It can feel like the edge of everything - but it's the centre of my world.

About Clare O'Brien
I'm a poet and writer. Originally a Londoner, I've worked as a schoolteacher, an arts journalist, PR to a Scottish politician and PA to an American rock star. I now live and write by a sea-loch in Scotland, which suits me much better.
