Wellington based writer Ingrid’s creative publications span two decades and a number of genres, including two poetry books, two books of narrative nonfiction, an edited collection on imaginings of place, and now a fiction debut, All Her Lives: Nine Stories, is forth-coming with Te Herenga Waka University Press and University of Queensland Press in 2025/6. Her writing has appeared in Lithub, The Ninth Letter, SRB, Spinoff, Landfall, and the Guardian. Her book, Where We Swim (THWUP and UQP, 2021), was described by Australian Book Review as a “luminous work of wondrous depth.” She was the 2024 CNZ Writer in Residence at the IIML, and in 2025 is teaching online for the Faber Writing Academy at Allen & Unwin. During her residency the novel she will be working on is set in the same world as All Her Lives.
