From journalist to poet

The “words on a line” world premiere

Yup, calling it a world premiere may sound hyperbolic. But, technically at least, it happens to be true…

So here I am in full flow (rapture the photographer, Fabio Barry, called it) belting out one of the poems I read to a packed house (more hyperbole) in the Secret Garden behind the Castle Bookshop in Ludlow on August 5th.

Links to each poem below.


I am indebted to my poetry coach Pele Cox for getting me this far. The journey has only just begun.

Rehearsals with Pele at the home of Stephen Cox RA.
When you can’t find a lectern during rehearsals use a squirrel trap. Simps!
