Being currently house-bound following a hip replacement, discovering this forum is timely - thanks to Jo Bell via Ros Badcoe!
I live, work and write in Leics. I'm a member of 3 local poetry workshop/discussion groups. I value feedback highly and am continually amazed by the insight of others when I'm too close to my own work to view it objectively.
I attend readings, open mic events and writing workshops across the midlands, sometimes beyond. My poems have appeared in several magazines/journals. My debut pamphlet will be published this autumn.
I'm really looking forward to meeting you all :D

hi Jayne, good to meet you! Who are you publishing your pamphlet with?

I hope you find PG a good place to be. We aim for good critique without taking it all too seriously.

Thanks, Ros. My pamphlet will be published by Soundswrite Press.
It's good to be here, giving and receiving feedback.
