Poetry friends, Hampshire friends, everyone further afield! WPF is remixing the canon ft. brilliant poets like Fiona Benson, Richard Scott & @naush.bsky.social and activities for all. 10–12 Oct plus more before I’ll be helping out, come say hello 💫 🔗 www.winchesterpoetryfestival.org/wpf25friday

Delighted to have three new poems in the latest Poetry Birmingham Literary Journal, alongside many wonderful voices, inc Kavita Bhanot, Troy Cabida, & my translation mentee Alex Mepham. ✨ Well done, Editor Naush Sabah. You can read all three of my works here: static1.squarespace.com/static/5e3b2...

I have pencilled in a standing date to write poetry with @naush.bsky.social

The prose looks brilliant as ever, have already enjoyed @andrewjamesneilson.bsky.social on Roddy Lumsden… waiting for kids to go to bed to read some more!

Delighted to have my essay published here. On nightingales in life and poetry, the Russian language and interpreting for Ukrainian refugees in the UK. Thank you @naush.bsky.social 👇🩵

PBLJ11 is out now at www.poetrybirmingham.com. Have a look, have a read, buy a copy. Over 200 pages and full of interesting things. I think it's pretty good and want to know what you think. Write me and let me know 🤓

Trying this place out, finally. The best content I have to offer right now is a baby Pyro sleeping. 🐾
