It's #KittyTime during the #P4A2026

This was really fun to do - and hopefully it's fun to listen to! If you wanna hear me chat about Ireland's spoken word festival "Lingo", give my episode a listen!

Very excited for both of these lectures! It's open to the public and we would love to see Vienna folks there!

The collection will attend to local/national practices as well as transnational movements and aims to advance the theory and methodology of poetry performance studies. The deadline for submission is 21 November 2025. Please find the ‘Call for Submissions’ at poetryoffthepage.net/wp-content/u...

#CFPAlert Submissions for ‘Poetry Off the Page: International Advances in Poetry Performance Research’ now open! This special collection of articles will be published by @openlibhums.bsky.social Journal and aims to spotlight new research on contemporary poetry performance from around the globe.

Does anyone know of any literature on poetry films in Ireland? Thanks!

The Poetry Off the Page team thanks you for making the #PoPAroundtheGlobe conference such a generative experience! Ft. Shefali Banerji, @julialajtanovak.bsky.social, Emily Poulter, Purva Dua, @clairemsp.bsky.social, Marie Krebs, Rachel Bolle-Debessay, Helen Thomas 📸: © Tsepang (Tespa) Malephane

This was such a joy to host! Getting to platform these amazing poets - headliners and open micers alike - is an absolute pleasure. And MC-ing with Shefali is always a great gig!

I'm excited to share that my first peer-reviewed journal article is now out in the world (and it's open access)! If you want to read about a fantastic poetry show and how it adapted to the circumstances of the pandemic, you can do that here: olh.openlibhums.org/article/id/1...

This is massive news. There was so much data gathered and it's clear this scheme is necessary, especially for those who fell inbetween the cracks of AC funding. For the next round let's ensure it allows people to access funding without sacrificing their disability supports, a major flaw last time.

I cannot tell you how bad the FOMO is... Another great event I'll be missing by being in Austria and not in Ireland 😭

Anyone want to guess what Irish organisation these transcription mistakes are trying to refer to? "Forest Nagelga" "1st and Grelga"

Anyone going to the EFACIS conference in Turku who hasn't booked a room yet and might want to share one?

Got to conduct another interview with a poet this weekend and it was brilliant, such an engaging conversation about poetry performance, identity, and Ireland.

I'm seeking proposals for an open-access Special Issue of 'Humanities' that I'm guest editing on the topic of 'Celibacy in Irish Women's Writing'! Please share with interested colleagues/students and contact me directly if you've an idea for a submission. Full details: www.mdpi.com/journal/huma...

Looking forward to this!

This sounds like an absolutely brilliant undertaking!
