Thanks to The Marrow Poetry Journal for choosing my poem, Doll. It's wonderful to be in this company of poets from across the world. #poetry #coercivecontrol

My deepest thanks to Abingdon library for hosting the launch of Blood Women @parlyareepress.bsky.social yesterday. The interactions with the audience were so moving (thanks for your questions) and @elcurwen.bsky.social’s words were unforgettable. In-person readings make poems come alive, don’t they?
Very much excited to take part in the launch of this wonderful book by @moleculesunlimited.bsky.social!
Thanks to @magmapoetry.bsky.social and @betarish.bsky.social for last night's celebration of all the winners and commended poets in the Magma Prize. Congratulations to everyone who read their poems. A brilliant night in a unique 'theatre on a ship' in Canary Wharf.

Thanks to @matthewmcsmith.bsky.social @blackboughpoetry.bsky.social for including my poems in this anthology of responses to Eliot's The Wasteland.
My Mum lost her life 26 years ago today and I’m missing her heaps.
On Saturday (11am), I’ll be reading about Mum and other women in my life. It will be lovely to hear @elcurwen.bsky.social read as well.
Amazing evening of poetry and celebration at our competition winners event at the gorgeous Theatreship earlier this week with @betarish.bsky.social
