A quick heads up for fellow Gwen John obsessives. Particularly interesting to get a fine poet's take on her life. Still much to be understood, I feel. bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002xh2…

Fictive Dream, unbelievably, turns ten, and it's a joy to be part of the celebrations! Going Central is the twin of Going Out Somewhere, previously published in Fictive Dream, effectively the same story but from the POV of the other protagonist. Or is it? fictivedream.com/2026/06/07/…

A story within a poem from the wonderful @strokingtheair - you can see it, you can imagine it, you can feel it.

Apologies to anyone who has been waiting to receive my new collection, Blurred Edges @ballerinibooks. There have been some technical hurdles to overcome, but publication is now scheduled for 5th June, and in the meantime books will be sent out. Thanks for your patience.

As requested by @MatthewMCSmith for today’s @TopTweetTuesday challenge, a poem in your own voice and style lightly influenced by one of three named poets. Unsurprisingly mine is a love poem with an unresolved ending. (William Carlos Williams).
