Lucy Heuschen is a British poet living in the countryside near Bonn, Germany with her family and rescue dog. She came back to reading and writing poetry after a twenty-year legal career and a life-changing breast cancer diagnosis in 2018.
After her cancer treatment, in 2020 Lucy founded The Rainbow Poems, an online poetry community for anyone going through major life change. During the pandemic and the years afterwards, The Rainbow Poems hosted over 140 poets, from first-time writers to prize-winning poets. Lucy was also the Editor of the Sonnets for Shakespeare anthology, raising funds for the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust during lockdown. She is the Poetry Society's Stanza Representative for Germany.
Lucy's poems have appeared in The High Window, Ink Sweat & Tears, Obsessed With Pipework, Lighthouse, Skylight 47 and The Storms among many others. She loves anthologies for the community they foster and she has appeared in anthologies by Black Bough, Dreich, Sídhe Press, Orchard Lea, Yaffle and New Contexts.
Lucy’s debut pamphlet “We Wear The Crown” was published by Hedgehog Poetry Press in 2022 and her second, “Loggerheads” — the subject of this episode of A Thousand Shades of Green — won The Broken Spine’s annual chapbook competition in 2023. “Loggerheads” will make its way into the world in late April 2024. Lucy's first full collection, bringing together her love of history, storytelling, family and feminism, is due to be published by Yaffle Press.
