I'm absolutely delighted to have some poems in the latest edition of Northern Gravy 💗 Read them here northerngravy.com/poem-by-char...

The good people at @blackboughpoetry.bsky.social also published an interview with me (written by former BBC journalist @elcurwen.bsky.social) over the weekend. It gives you more of an insight into how @subruria.com came into being, and why I work in the way that I do. bit.ly/SubruriaSilv...

I’m really looking forward to reading alongside this amazing bunch - do join us!

Huge thanks to the wonderful Dirigible Balloon @northernjim.bsky.social for hosting two of my new children's poems - I'm so happy to see them floating along in such great company! Here's My Best Friend is an Alien. dirigibleballoon.org/poem/My-Best... #childrenspoetry #poetryforchildren
