Hey Tom. You should definitely be on a list of poets. Still hoping to see you read in Nottingham some time.

Yes. I'm writing about voice and silence in the poetry of Vicki Feaver and her contemporaries. It's a critical and creative PhD so my poetry counts towards it - although it has to fit the theme.

Thanks for making contact - I'm sure she was inspirational as a teacher. The more I read her poems, the more impressed I am by her skill.

I'm watching it on catch up. Dragons' Den is one of my favourite programmes on TV. I like all the dragons - they demonstrate that it's possible to be wealthy and ethical. This week is a particularly brilliant episode.
