So great to see my book on the shelves amongst poets I so admire at my local @WaterstonesCrk. The Illustrated Woman is one of my favourite new collections as well @HelenMort 🖤 https://t.co/Qs0xbJfaa0

So thrilling to hear @ValzhynaMort read her brilliant and devastating @ForwardPrizes nominated poem ‘Nocturne for a Moving Train’ tonight at #CIPF23 ‘Shhh… The chestnuts are about to speak.’ https://t.co/OcO0HzGGJZ

Finally got my very own copy of Pit Lullabies by @JessicaTraynor6 was fascinating hearing about the various visceral reactions to that infamous cover @BloodaxeBooks ✨ https://t.co/T8zFG6dQlY

@GodzillaKent I’d add Zadie Smith’s Feel Free and Intimations and maybe Natalia Ginzberg’s The Little Virtues but there is also Eula Bliss, and Maggie Nelson’s The Argonauts and Bluets (and Jane I suppose as well) x

Just read the unflinching History of Present Complaint by @HLRwriter which spins trauma & humour into poetry to create such a bold and compelling record of human experience. This line stays with me All you have is your truth, your heart/ and the wonderful end of the world 🖤 https://t.co/gjVm8U4shH

Late but still going 😅#TheSealeyChallenge Day 29 was @Leeanne_Quinn_ Some Lives. I love the poets Marina Tsvetaeva and Anna Akhmatova whose voices weave through this collection which takes in loss, art and the ticking on of the seasons in Quinn’s deftly lyrical & unique style ✨ https://t.co/uOmS95nIxQ
