COVER REVEAL: ‘What Love Is’ by Kerry Darbishire
Well, another brilliant collection on the horizon is from one of my favourite ever poets, the  awesome Kerry Darbishire, who has created what I think is very much her finest work to date. Which frankly is going some. Today, I can only share the beautiful cover based upon a Stephen Darbishire painting, which naturally captures the mood perfectly. The book is due for release in January, with pre-orders opening a bit sooner than that.

Having so much fun with the new @nealzetterpoet.bsky.social book. ‘Here are 55 SHORT poems that are perfect for performing, sharing and reading at home or at school’ and I agree. Fab illustrations by Will Hughes. Neal is a magician with words, I really recommend 🙂🌟 @otterbarrybooks.bsky.social

Thank you so much to @alanparrywriter.co.uk, @thebrokenspine.co.uk, for choosing my novella-in-flash as one of the three winners in the Summer 2025 Competition. I've been working on The Knack of Gaining Entry for years and have never given up on it. Now it has found a perfect home. I'm thrilled.

Absolutely flabbergasted to be back on BBC Upload last night. I was out at Amy Macdonald in Nottingham (fab), but caught up this morning. I've a poem on at about 9 minutes and you can hear it here: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... Many thanks to Jake Peach sitting in for Rob Jelly. A great surprise!
