Bayou

Elizabeth Loudon

I grew up in Oxfordshire, then spent a year travelling in Iraq and Lebanon before studying English at Cambridge, after which I moved to the US. I earned an MFA in Fiction at the University of Massachusetts and stayed in New England for 25 years, teaching English and working as a fundraiser and charity development consultant. Along the way I published fiction and memoir in the Denver Quarterly, INTRO, North American Review, and the Gettysburg Review, and was awarded a Massachusetts Cultural Council Fellowship for Fiction.
