Wonderful evening at the online launch of Black Bough's 'In flight' edition, which I guest edited. It was lovely to host over 30 poets who read their poems from the anthology and the open as mic as well. I shared the selection process, talked emerging themes, companion artwork, flight, and poetry in the time of global conflict.
Thanks to Matthew MC Smith for arranging and intro-ing.

I was blown away by Christina‘s readings at a poetry evening, hosted by Griffin Books, in Penarth, alongside with Helen Calcutt. Her delivery and emotion were so affecting. Couldn’t wait to bring her poetry collection home ‘More than you were’.
