If you're around on 24th July, it'd be lovely to see you. Reading at Crossrail Place in Canary Wharf, in the company of Shanta Acharya, Fawzia Muradali Kane and Mona Dash. Early start at 6pm, so plenty of time for some cocktails after!
Such a busy time in life and work - but thought it would be nice to share the new Poetry London cover. We are trying something different. Hope you like it.
