I will be involved in two readings in the week commencing 9 October 2017.

Firstly, I will be part of the official launch of the Un/Forced anthology from the Rhubarb open mic and its headliners. Kristina Diprose, Lorna Faye Dunsire, Nick Allen and I will be joined by SJ Bradley, Mark Connors and Mandy Sutter for poems and short fiction from the anthology, and more.

Ilkley Literature Festival 2017

I will be reading at two events as part of the Ilkley Literature Festival Fringe. 

On Tuesday 3 October, 9:15-10:15 at Ilkley Playhouse (Wildman), I will be with my fellow Templar Poets, David Coldwell, Ian Harker and Tom Weir. David's pamphlet, Flowers by the Road, came out earlier in the year, while Ian's debut collection, Rules of Survival, is newly published. Tom's All That Falling, from 2015, was one of the best collections of the last few years, and included a poem that was highly commended in the Forward Prize.

On Monday 9 October, Rhubarb's anthology, Un/forced will be launched, also at Ilkley Playhouse (Wildman), 9:15-10:15. As well as my fellow hosts, Nick Allen, Kristina Diprose and Lorna Faye Dunsire, there will be guest appearances from SJ Bradley, Mark Connors and Mandy Sutter.

I would love to see you at either (or both!) events.
