My hopes and plans for 2023 are to develop the range and depth of my work, experiment with recognised forms; read at Cheltenham poetry Festival and share my work with other groups and readings; work towards a third volume; read and study more poetry. Carry on contributing to my two writing groups.
My second book of poems, A Different Land was published by Palewell Press in July.
Two days later, I learned that I had won the Gloucestershire Writers Network First Prize for Poetry with The War Against Speech, which I read later at the Cheltenham Literary Festival.
I have also had work published in Sarasvati, Acumen and Dialect Writers 2022 Anthology and am working on a new collection..
