Merril is multitasking, as she often does. First she is reflecting, and then she is fighting fascism!!!
June 6 is D-day, probably ANTIFA's most heroic moment.

Get booking, get inspired by our poems
in response to Eliot’s The Waste Land.

Pride month continues. This week: #PoemsAbout #WrongBody. Write the disconnect. The body inherited, desired, rejected, escaped. We favour image-driven poems, emotional honesty, and work that avoids cliché. Theme opens Friday. Use Alt Text.
HURRY UP PLEASE, IT'S TIME!
Last call for our FREE online launch tomorrow (Wed 10th June, 6.30pm, UK time) on Zoom of 'Shored Fragments...'
