A first language Welsh speaker, she writes in Welsh/Cymraeg and mainly translates from English to Welsh, and occasionally in the other direction. Sian was brought up in Trawsfynydd, and now lives in Penrhyndeudraeth in Gwynedd.
A translation (Susan Walton ) of Sian’s novel 'Yn y Tŷ Hwn' was published under the title 'This House' in 2024. Currently she is working on a novel where a small group of women face the closure of their chapel in rural Wales as the congregation dwindles.
Sian has, through Literature Across Frontiers, visited Kerala as a member of a translation poetry workshop and until recently she was Writer in Residence on an 18-month-long heritage project run by the Church in Wales, which included a week as Writer in Residence on Bardsey/Ynys Enlli.
After co-editing Arachne's first bilingual anthology, A470: Poems for the Road/Cerddi'r Ffordd, with Ness Owen, she is very much looking forward to working with her again on Afonydd.
Sian has poems in Arachne Anthologies, A470, and Menopause *the* Anthology.view less
