Join us for the Sheffield launch of Linen Press short story anthology 'Skeins'. The event is part of the Sheffield Hallam University Creative Writing masterclass series.

A hugely enjoyable & thought-provoking conversation between 2 wonderful poets: the idea of poet as 'professional noticer', prose poetry being for daydreamers, no rules except 'does it work?' & compelling in-depth discussion of two cracking poems. Thanks Chris Jones & Dave Swann!

I always thought I had an unrequited romance with The New Yorker but it turns out they love me back. Bright I Burn is on the 'Best Books of 2024' newyorker.com/best-books-2024

Thanks so much National Flash Fiction Day for nominating 'This is a story about squirrels' for Best Microfiction 2024! It's a piece close to my heart, being about chronic pain and discovering the life changing practice of Pain Reprocessing Therapy. ❤️🐿️

I'm so grateful to all those working on this new, evidence-based, approach to chronic pain. It has been life-changing for me 😍 youtu.be/fpvPNDujUNI?...
