Made a 10min film about brilliant people I met in wartime #Ukraine, as part of this evolving Walter Benjamin show at @FavershamLit. Thinking of them all today as we exchange messages on the anniversary of Kremlin invasion. šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡¦ favershamliteraryfestival.or…

Very interesting session at @FavershamLit with writer Ann Morgan (@A_B_Morgan) who obviously has a *massive* literary brain as she chips away at language barriers and explodes stereotypes.

Brilliant writer turns out to be great raconteur. Who'd have thought it? @estellecostanza signing copies of his acclaimed memoir O Brother at @FavershamLit. #books

A weekend of walking business starts tomorrow with a ritual walk for #terminalia, then a writing walkshop for @FavershamLit on Saturday, and #DistanceDrift business as usual on Sunday. Hoping for a gap or two in the rain.

Folkestone! Just about to kick off at @TheChambersBar with three great #punk / #postpunk bands. Stupidly good value to get in. Support #livemusic! Margate marvels The Pink Suits, Panic Shack and Grandma's House. Yes Kent! Live music venues matter. Thanks @musicvenuetrust ā¤

Listening to 6 Music play a lot of @panicshack ahead of their forthcoming slot at @rockaway_fest and remembering being stood about 1 foot from them at this Folkestone gig šŸ˜Ž That'll probably never happen again! #livemusic #gigs

This print from my Thames project A 100 Mile Walk From London To Margate, 2020 is part of the @MargateSchool art raffle to support victims of the atrocities in Ukraine. The image seemed fitting. Please take a look either in person or online. themargateschool.com/art-aga…

Should have mentioned of course that this is the @MargateBookie contingent going up west (@FavershamLit) in a fearsome fest 2 fest #poetry extravaganza that's becoming East Kent tradition. Slammin'. Every time. #poetryslam

The word on the #Thanet #poetry street is that the #Margate Massive have got a metric f-tonne of words ready to go this Fri. Watch them tear up East Kent in a literary derby, 7pm. Or are they all (sea) front? Call their bluff, Faversham? Or bow before their bards? We shall see...
I suppose at some point I'll have to take this off then šŸ™ Sigh... But soft! What light yonder breaks? Why 'tis the @FavershamLit rescheduled #poetry slam *this Friday* in Faversham - the lit fest hop-rich hot-spot in Kent! Huzzah, literature fans. Get thee to a punnery! ā¤
