As Plath (nearly) said, I know I'm a writer because I get rejections... On that basis alone, I'm smashing it.
@juliamarybird.bsky.social Thank you so much for the advice! Utterly brilliant!

It's been a quiet few months so I'm pleased to have a poem in this fine mag. In good bookshops everywhere...

Do people know there is a play on about Max Ritvo at the Hampstead Theatre at the minute? Feels like a thing to support.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but yes, you do deserve a bookshelf with a rolling ladder.

We're launching The Bee magazine today because the UK publishing and writing industries have a bit of a class problem.

@oliverfox.bsky.social Nice to meet you yesterday. Really enjoyed the winning poem and have just ordered Haptics (great title).

Very pleased with this news! It's such an astonishing thing when someone else likes a poem!

@lrb.co.uk Sorry, quick query... Do you guys send out email rejections for submitted work?

Meanwhile in Hungary, tens of thousands take to the streets of Budapest to protest Viktor Orban.
"Our time has come!" proclaimed opposition leader Peter Magyar.
May it be so.

Larkin's 'Importance of Elsewhere'. A bit imperial but he captured something about Belfast no one else has.

Reading Louis MacNeice's 'Autumn Journal' is really disturbing at the moment...

Great @thefridaypoem.bsky.social today. The discussion between two critical voices raises this above a standard review. They need to make these awards less like the Olympics and more like the BAFTAs, with a specific a career-recognition award, a main prize, best British book award... or something.

Nearly 250,000 people in Berlin showed up to protest fascism and the Musk backed AfD party.

Also Argentina.
Argentina is protesting against fascism, racism, and dictatorship.
We must expose this global right-wing dictatorship takeover. If you’re from another country, please share what’s happening where you are. The media is hiding and lying.

Just saying that a really interesting pair of pamphlets dropped through the letterbox today @matriches.bsky.social and @yopopodawn.bsky.social.

Is it just me or is there, in the more 'avant' mags, an increasing number of poems that disjoint syntax and end up sounding as if they are written in the voice of Yoda?
