Really enjoying my poetry prep with Ferlinghetti, but can't get beyond the advice to Rita... Did she follow it? What's your favourite inscription, found or otherwise? #poets #Ferlinghetti
Well here it is
Congratulations, David! ๐
Fingers crossed for both of us ๐
Straggly copse of tall, bare trees, with brook in the foreground and sun bouncing off it.
Isn't it fabulous to see the sun this week?! My walk in Boultham Park yesterday. Now you've slept on it, I hope that word/line/plot point is suddenly clear. Have a good one, writer friends. #Lincoln #photography #nature #trees #writers #poets
I love this by the librarian!
It's lovely to see!
Wow, how did I miss this?! Many congratulations Paul, Vikki and Matthew! ๐คฉ๐คฉ๐คฉ

This was published this afternoon. I think it is the most exceptionally beautiful piece of online publishing! Big thanks to @leiabutler.bsky.social and @fullhouselitmag.bsky.social for all they do - and for including my piece 'Lares and Penates' therein...๐โค๏ธ๐
This is why poetry is meant to be read out loud; such musicality โค๏ธ
Two fab books for #WorldBookDay A beautiful tribute to the late Australian poet, Robert Gray: their favourite Gray poems and personal recollections from his fellow poets. Plus a Danish thriller. #poetry #fiction #FiveIslandsPress #BrightCrockeryDays #Australian #icon

You know that moment when you've pressed 'submit' and you're full of hope? That's me, right now. It can only end in tears? #Watchthisspace

Well done, my prolific friend ๐
I hope you're feeling much better, Rachel!
Send me your poems! โจ๏ธ
Last call for tonight...!
Slightly?
I wonder if this is a British/American thing, and whether an art house French piece would be regarded the same?
Excellent! I'm so glad it's not just me, Shelly. ๐
Is it just me, or do any other list makers add 'to do' points to their list when they've already completed them, but forgotten to list them in the first instance? So you can have the sublime joy of ticking them off? ๐ Perhaps I need to get out more? #thiswritinglife #writers
