Ese Erheriene

Ese Erheriene is an emerging writer of fiction and poetry. From London, she has lived in France, Norway, and across Asia. As a journalist, she wrote for The Wall Street Journal — in London and Hong Kong — for almost six years, before moving to Portugal for a year to write about identity, [dis]connection and culture. That experience became her short story ‘The Knowledge’, published in the Goldfish Anthology (2023). Her writing has been published in ‘The Himalayan Journal’ (2025), longlisted for the Deborah Rogers Fund Award (2023) and she is a winner of the Future Worlds Prize (2024), as well as a former participant of the Mountain Writers Intensive residency at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity. Her poetry, commissioned by the Montcalm Collection, is on display in three of its London hotels.
