I’m still buzzing from a wonderful evening of #poetry and #celebration on Wednesday. ‘Trilogy’ and ‘Cry’ both well and truly launched! There were familiar faces, new friends, fellow #writers and #artists all gathered together in that welcoming space. Who’s launching next?! I’ll be there for you!

This is Emily. Emily started my writing career when she visited my school from France when I was just 9. We spoke briefly and I scribbled down my address for her. It began a 30-year friendship through letters and later the internet. Now she has my book! #penfriends #writers

I have just finished my first read of the poetry collection by @katiejenkinspoet.bsky.social 'wife:widow:witch'.
It lives up to the promise of the collection's wonderful title.
"my feet are match-tips
blood red phosphorus
striking the ground
burning me away"
Virtuoso. Bravo Katie. Longer review

Reviews like these mean so much to a poet. It’s a leap of faith releasing work, and it’s thanks to the brilliant @alanparrywriter.co.uk & @thebrokenspine.co.uk that mine is in the world. But no work is complete until it finds its readers. Thank you @peterhowitt.bsky.social for your insights 🙏

It’s the season of giving, and we’re asking for one final push. We’ve never had arts council funding—we’ve built this prize ourselves. We’re so close to £5,000. If you believe in paying poets fairly, now is the time to give. 🔗
A Poetry Award That Puts Poets First – And You Can Make It Happen - The Broken Spine
