A busy week for so many of our Stanzas - brilliant to see so much going on! Thanks to all the reps making this happen
Excellent #poetry #workshop tonight with @poetryid.bsky.social - the N. Herts stanza of @poetrysociety.org.uk
The theme was 'something returning from the past', and brilliant work was produced.

Heya! This time we read Medium is the Massage by Marchall McLuhan, a stew of images, aphorisms and (maybe unfounded?) optimism that will loosen up those tired media muscles. Join us in our not-so-global village as we discuss! #bowie #books #booksky
The Medium is the Massage by Marshall McLuhan — The Bowie Book Club Podcast
Welcome to another episode of the Bowie Book Club , where wild speculation and grasping for straws about Bowie’s favorite books has reigned supreme since 2016. This time we read Medium is the Massage...

Last year a new poetry format was launched into the world. A 24-syllable expression of positivity that’s as challenging to write as it is uplifting to read. The 2nd annual waterford comp is now open to all and free to enter. See waterford.carrd.co for details. #poetry #micropoetry #poem #BlueSkyPoet
