TWO of my poems made it to the @Mslexia single poem long list this year … & one was about a lawnmower 🤷🏻♀️. Congratulations to other long and shortlistees as well as the winners!

I cannot imagine a Midlands poetry scene without @badbettypress - they’ve changed aspirations & expectations outside of London, their workshops have allowed me to produce not only some of my best work but to face fears, and they’ve grown community. Support if you can ….
We need your help. If you can’t donate please like and share.
