Looking forward to it this Thursday, when I'll be reading with fellow Cinnamon Press poets at West Greenwich library. We'll make it a really special evening; I hope that some of my readers will be able to be there. Docklands Light Railway provides a lovely trip over to Greenwich for anyone coming from the North!

Kew Gardens - what a great poetry venue! On Wednesday evening some of us from the Mixed Borders garden residencies shared garden poems with a London Parks and Gardens Trust audience. The reading was held in the Sir Joseph Banks building, not as I'd imagined under banana leaves in the Palm House or surrounded by lotus blossoms in the Waterlily House. Still, it was lovely to hear more of the beautiful poems that came out of our garden residencies. An online 'flicky-book' is currently in production and  will be available via The Poetry School, poetryschool.com.
