It’s amazing to see an indie published book in the window of Hodges Figgis. Bram Stoker’s Gibbet Hill is in v good company. All funds go to the Charlotte Stoker Fund which is supporting work on preventable hearing loss in newborns. Young Stoker had to be a customer: www.hodgesfiggis.ie/our-history

So a friend put me on to Frank Skinner's Poetry Podcast: imagine my delight to see an episode about @jesstraynor.bsky.social, who I got to collaborate with on the Lighthouse Project (link in bio). Jess was amazing to work with, and FS does her real justice here.
