š„ Insurance is the Achilles heel of the fossil fuel industry. A new #InsureOurFuture report published today finds that new coal power plants have become near uninsurable and that insurers have finally started to move away from oil and gas. A short š§µ on leaders and laggards! š„

Excited to read @LizSennitt new book My Name is Abilene. Was fortunate to read some of the poetry in early stages and know its going to be fantastic š„

Elisabeth'sĀ My Name isĀ AbileneĀ is an effervescentĀ fable-world of desirous bodies and broken-hearted people, akin to Vasko Popa -- linguistically wide-ranging [...], this tightly-wrought telling of in-between lands and in-between emotional states is a haunting.'Ā āĀ Rachael Allen

So very happy that my poetry pamphlet has been shortlisted for publication by the wonderful @TheEmmaPress

'New Troy' @alicekmerry Old and new mythologies are cut through by a direct and forceful poetic voice. We were all struck by āI leave myself in the bull-filled roomā - pulsing anger and effortless transition from myth-time to the present day. A confident, consistent pamphlet.
