Chuffed to have you in it!
Look at this gorgeous cover! So excited to have a poem in this anthology from @writtenoffbooks and to share the pages with so many fabulous Northern writers and creatives 😊 Huge thanks to Editor @ABCallaghan2 ✨
Hosted by me!
My cat will not be there unfortunately but look how cute he is. 🥺
It will be a cold and a dark one, but isn't that just the Bone Down vibe? Wrap up warm and bring a flask of something cosy.
Message me if you want to sign up!

Fellow poets, anyone rec some reading about why rhyming poetry is so often dismissed/seen as less worthy? Read in a few articles&some feedback that it’s not seen as really ‘proper’ but quite often that’s how my words put themselves together. @writtenoffbooks deemed it legit 1/2
The waiting room for heaven is full. No-one in or out. The song playing is the same that's been playing since eternity. The receptionist will not stop smiling, and clicking their pen. The phone is always busy, but no-one ever rings. The waiting room for heaven is full. #SFFiction

Another really useful poetry blog by @ABCallaghan2 over @writtenoffbooks
Help to write a good bio or a reminder to make sure the current one is as good as it can be.
Occurs to me how tricky it can be to find accessible, practical info about this stuff

I wrote a blog for @writtenoffbooks about bios! Bio-logy if you will.

The very flashy fish
had a quite uncommon wish:
to be loved,
to be held
under spell
of a kiss.
From them he would not part,
but too soon he gave his heart,
to the never quenched depths
of a shark
