Debbie Enever
Author and Podcaster
Introduction:
Debbie Enever is an author and podcaster. Midowed, her debut memoir, was published in 2024 and the Bereaved Parents’ Club Podcast launched in May this year too.
Debbie studied at the Centre for New Writing which is part of the University of Manchester, attaining her MA in Creative Writing in 2021. Having graduated with a Combined Studies BA from the same institution in 1991, she thought enough time had passed for all her misdemeanours to have been forgotten…
Midowed was longlisted for the inaugural Bridport Memoir Prize in 2022.
The Bereaved Parents’ Club podcast seeks to share stories and offer a space for those living with child loss to explore topics relevant to them. Series 1 has been well-received and series 2 will be available from early Autumn.
Debbie describes herself as a bit of a Northern nomad. She’s lived in Glossop, Manchester, Leeds, Huddersfield, and is currently living with her partner in Sheffield. She’s a lifelong Manchester City supporter and avid reader.
About Me
Debbie was born in 1969 but as the 90s were a bit of a chemical haze, considers herself to be still in her forties.
She spent most of her early working life in the voluntary sector fundraising and running projects to support disabled people’s groups. Latterly her role involved supporting disabled university students to access support.
