He won a bardic chair at Pwllheli Eisteddfod at the age of 16, and subsequently won 22 bardic chairs. His writings include the poem "Branwen ferch Llŷr" (which won him the crown at the Caernarfon National Eisteddfod in 1906, while he was still a student at Bala), and the poem "Owain Glyndŵr" (which won the crown at Llangollen in 1908). In 1907 a collection of his works was published under the title 'Llwyn Hudol'. (en)
