Luke Kennard

Jul 17, 2007 12:12

Luke Kennard is a bloody talented man. He has good taste. He is married to one of the nicest people in the world. He is tall, yet is not threatening. He came with us to Latitude. He returned yesterday, and immediately had photos of him taken by The Independent. This is because, though he didn't know it at the time, he has been the youngest poet ever to be nominated for the UK's most valuable annual poetry prize. By about ten years.

He's written a blog on Myspace entitled "Breaking News: Idiot is accidentally nominated for prize". He is good.
