It’s New Year’s Eve. You might be partying. You might be thinking about anything but poetry. Never mind… I won’t let you forget.

Are you daring enough to post some of your 2014 goals here? Perhaps you want to submit to magazines, enter competitions, write something for a friend, write something for yourself…

Scary… not sure I can do it…

Hi All,

Here’s a few things you may be interested in…

Desert Island Discs this week (Fri 20th) was with Gillian Clarke.  You can catch it again on radio 4 i player.  It’s worth listening to, she chooses a Seamus Heaney piece read by him and also the song of a blackbird.

At Theatre Clwyd there’s a film called ‘Kill Your Darlings,’ (Allen Ginsberg) on 21-23 Jan at 8pm
and ‘Under Milk Wood’ in Feb

Also, not poetry I know but there’s a certain poetry in the movement of the ‘puppet’ horses, the live show at Salford is all sold out but,  there’s a live screening of Warhorse on 27th Feb and 1-8 March.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL.  Hope you have time to sneak away with your notebook and pen…
