Meriel Lland

Dr. Meriel Lland is a writer, editor, photographer and film-poet entranced by the stories we tell of the natural world and the secrets those stories reveal of their tellers. She’s travelled with reindeer in Scandinavia, elephants in Africa and camels in Morocco. Back home on the edge of the Peak District, a turtle dove once shared her garden. Her portfolio career combines lecturing (most recently as Creative Writing Programme Lead at Manchester Metropolitan University’s Cheshire Faculty) and professional practice. Meriel’s writing and images have appeared in publications worldwide and clients include: BBC Wildlife, BBC Countryfile, The Daily Telegraph, The Guardian, The Natural History Museum, London, American Museum of Natural History, National Geographic, Lonely Planet, OUP, MacMillan, News International, RSPB Birds/Nature’s Home, Viacom TV. Recent editorial work includes: The Magic of Wild Things (2020) and The Root and The Wing (2021) by Dr. Julie Armstrong. For more information please see: www.meriellland.co.uk
