:DDDDD Yes, dear. I mean, it's about even at the moment with the publishing as I also got a 'intriguing but not quite what we're looking for' letter from one magazine. But yes, I am very excited about this. Thank you for your cheerleading bb!

Congratulations - which I've already said but it's nice to put it onscreen, too. I want to come to the gig but am trying to work out whether the trains will let me - I am not at all keen on driving into/parking in Manchester at night.

Btw, concert tickets booked, cooker installed, harisssa paste recipe found and on its way. None of these are poetry related, I know, but while I remember....

Thank you *beams* I was waiting to get all the above details before posting about it.

I believe training is possible, there's e.g. a train from Piccadilly to Romiley 22.45 on the date. Let me know if you plan on coming. Apparently it's standing room mostly, but the organiser will reserve some chairs for people who might not be able to stand around for 2h. <3

And yay for all of the above non-poetry related things :D

Thank you very much! The score is 1-1 on publishing now as also got a 'this is intriguing but no thanks' letter from a magazine.

Thank you! It'll be interesting, because sounds like there will be a number of experienced performance poets there, and this particular poem doesn't work so well read out loud anyway... Ah well. My test drive it an open mic I'm going to tomorrow.
