Llio Elain Maddocks is a poet and author, originally from Llan Ffestiniog but currently living in Cardiff. She grew up by Afon Cynfal, a stone’s throw away from where Blodeuwedd and Gronw plotted to kill Lleu, so she swam in these stories and myths as a child. She published her first novel, ‘Twll Bach yn y Niwl’ in 2020, and publishes most of her poems on Instagram @llioelain.
