Woke up to the @poetrywales.bsky.social weekly email and their "poem for you" was a "poem by me"!
It's not in my old book or my new book, but it will be in a book one day.
It's about how I really wanted to go and see a Wolf Alice gig in Swansea but was immunocompromised and didn't.
Advert for a magazine. Text reads "Issue of the Month". The magazine is shown, it is Poetry Wales, and the cover features a brain.

If you're already bored of the O*s*s reunion (and they haven't even hit the stage / each other yet), then I have 48 pages of anti90snostalgia poetry with my name on it...

People give the BBC a lot of abuse from the left, from the right, and they don't have an easy position being required by the moral majority to be balanced.
I disagree with their 'news' opinion of Palestine, but they are showing this on iPlayer.

I could have lied, but Laid came out on my 16th so it would have been a 366 day year, and that's just not playing by the rules of internet pedantry. I'll add this too. Deffo no skips on this (mini) album.

Happy #WorldBookDay to all who celebrate but especially to Bethany Handley and her new poetry pamphlet Cling Film which is a brilliant and vivid insight into ableism and becoming a wheelchair user. Beth is 'One to Watch' right now - get it from Seren Books.

Lovely evening at Swansea's Elysium watching Mab Jones reading from her new book Bog Witch - a book steeped in magic and mud.

I'm one of the #Welsh Disabled and d/Deaf writers featured in a new anthology, 'Beyond / Tu Hwnt' from #LucentDreaming later this month.
Preorder from the publishers, or any good bookshop.
My #poem is about a car park in Broadhaven, accessibility and blue badges.

Cried reading this.
Beautiful and elegant, everyday and interstellar. Well done @natholborow.bsky.social truly your best yet x
The cover of Little Universe, by Natalie Ann Holborow. Shows a hand with flowers seeming sprouting from it.
