If you're going to the @vervepoetryfest.bsky.social this weekend, there are still some spaces on my Sunday morning workshop, 'The Wall Thin as a Wren's Bone': Strengthening Your Similes'. Please share!

Thanks. We thought it might be that. A recording option would be great😊 (I'll be there, but we have a clash with other daughter's dance comp!)

@vervepoetryfest.bsky.social is it possible to watch the youth event online? The 'book stream' button doesn't seem to go to online tickets... www.vervepoetryfestival.com/2025-events/...

"Attendees can expect captivating headline sets from three talented Foyle Young Poets: Yousef Alawi, Lauren Lisk, and Tilly Wiggins. These young writers have already made their mark in the literary world and are set to inspire the next generation of poetry lovers with their powerful performances."

Come and see Tilly perform at Verve Poetry Festival Youth Takeover @vervepoetryfest.bsky.social @firststory.bsky.social

Looking forward to bringing a Young Poets Takeover to Verve in February, with Foyle Young Poets Yousef Alawi, Lauren Lisk and Tilly Wiggins.

If you're a young poet, come and join us!

Very proud to say there's a young Wiggins headlining the youth event at the Verve Poetry Festival in Feb 2025. It's going to be fab!

I've discovered my #pixel9pro is pretty good at hand held 30x zoom! This is from this morning while walking the dog (no edits)!
