Have a relaxing weekend, everyone!

Had an email from a Dawntreader subscribers this week, saying how delighted she was to be in the magazine & thanking me - it was her first published piece at 90 years of age. It's never too late to start! This is why I do it.🥰

Two perfectly-formed mags are finding their way to subscribers this morning. Brimming with poetry: packed with good writing. Take yourself away from it all & get one. share.google/e1tS0ARLtyxn...

A bit over-awed to be guest-poetting at Verbatim in Bishop’s Castle, Shropshire on Weds 30th July, in The Lab, just up the road from the Poetry Pharmacy. It's spacious & accessible, so if you’re local, come along with a poem to read. Start is 7.30pm; sign up for an open mic slot on the door #poetry

Beautiful Corfu Town on a VERY hot day...and what we found there, hiding from the heat.

There are nights when what is before your eyes is more beautiful than all your imaginings; better than thoughts that have kept you sound across a year.

The Indigo Office is now closed for our summer break... a longer break this year as 75 epic years have to be celebrated by my poet tomorrow, before I whisk him away to the Ionian Sea. Thank you for holding on emails & letters whilst we're walking with ancients.

I have a canopy of bright leaves in my head, waiting to join those that are growing in my breast.
My own lilac forest; a naked heart.

One summery issue of The Dawntreader is sitting up straight with arms folded, ready to be sent on its way over the next few days. Snaffle a copy from us, if you aren't already on the list. I'd love to send you one.
