    Author: Kristiana

    Kristiana Reed is a writer and an English teacher living in the UK. She is the creator of My Screaming Twenties, sole Editor of Free Verse Revolution: a literary magazine, and a freelance editor/proofreader. Reed has released two poetry collections: Between the Trees and Flowers on the Wall. She is a passionate advocate for mental health; especially depression and anxiety in young people and how mental illness is stigmatised in society. When she isn’t teaching, writing or editing, you will find her reading, daydreaming, soaking up any tiny ray of British sun and cooing incessantly at her cat.
