Nic Wilson is a writer, editor and Guardian Country Diarist based in North Hertfordshire.
She works for BBC Gardeners’ World Magazine, mainly specialising in wildlife and wild plants, and her writing has featured in anthologies, journals and magazines including The English Garden, The Garden (RHS Magazine), BBC Wildlife Magazine and the John Clare Society Journal.
She has written for Little Toller’s The Clearing and she contributed to the acclaimed anthology Women in Nature, edited by Katharine Norbury.
Her most recent narrative non-fiction was published in Moving Mountains, described as a ‘first-of-its-kind’ anthology of nature writing by disabled and chronically ill writers. This spring, she will be a contributor to Going to Ground, Little Toller’s new anthology of nature and place writing.
She is currently writing a memoir on nature, place and chronic illness, which was longlisted in the 2023 Nan Shepherd Prize for Underrepresented Voices in Nature Writing. She has found it a creatively exciting and personally challenging journey, and it has taught her a great deal, mostly about herself.
