She is a past winner of the Kent & Sussex Poetry Society Folio Competition. Her journalism career spans The Guardian, The Observer, the Financial Times and BBC Radio 4.Her YA novel The World Beneath, the story of a young boy growing up under apartheid (Walker Books/Candlewick, endorsed by Amnesty International) was a winner in the Children’s Africana Book Award in the US. Class of 79 (Jacana) was her tribute to her three fellow journalism students of the seventies who risked their lives to destroy apartheid.

'Sometimes fierce, often fragile, Warman peels back the wallpaper and deftly fills the cracks in real life with twinkling notes that vibrate around the reader as they travel with her from blushing vicars to birdsong. These are the Things we have Lost is a mighty promising debut collection that offers a treasure trove of finely-crafted insight and Warman is definitely one to watch.' - Tessa Foley
