Some weeks ago I was invited by The Love Tank to be part of a panel on the politics of sexual language (remember?); these handsome people were my fellow panellists… don’t we look like a reunion band? What would our band name be? 🤔

Excited to announce the launch of Out-Spoken Academy. The course is a six week online intensive programme which features 6 hours of workshops a week + 121s with three poets. Term 1 starts in May & will be led by Caroline Bird, Jack Underwood & myself. Applications open March 1st.

OK so WHO jinxed it??

My sabbatical so far: cough 😷, bad cold 😪, bunged up nose 🤧… I mean, at least now I don’t have an excuse NOT to get through my pile of unread books… and to work on my research project of course! 🫠🫠 #ThoughtsAndPrayers
