Hello, my name is Rowan McCabe and I’m a poet from Newcastle upon Tyne.

There’s only two Rowan McCabes on the internet. If you’re looking for an accountant from Melbourne, you’re in the wrong place.

I’ve been commissioned by Channel 4, Radio 3’s ‘The Verb’ and the National Trust. I’ve toured across the UK and have appeared at the Edinburgh Fringe and Glastonbury Festival.

My new book, The Door-to-Door Poet, is out now. It’s about my adventures across England as I knocked on strangers’ doors and offered to write poems for them on any subject they liked. I’m also off on tour at the minute and you can find upcoming dates for that here.
