It is publication day for my debut poetry collection New Famous Phrases! I've been able to say I'm a poet for a few years now, but today is the 1st day I feel like An Author. Thanks to my publisher @brokensleepbooks.bsky.social & editor @godzillakent.bsky.social for making this dream a reality.

It offers a sharp snapshot of contemporary literature while reflecting a working-class ethos & a commitment to degentrification, community power & accessible culture. A vibrant, dynamic & award-winning independent press distilled into one compelling volume.

The Vitalist Sees the Signs is a sly, searing, and spectacularly inventive sequence from GB Clarkson, where each poem casts its eye on the absurd, the divine, and the intimately strange.
