Ahhh, Stroud. There's not many places you'd get a packed out pub for poetry on a rainy Monday night in November, but this town's one of em. Thanks for having us @crownandsceptrestroud, for - as ever - excellent hosting by @jonny_fluffypunk Twas great

Dear friends join us on Monday - indeed tomorrow no less - at The Crown and Sceptre #Stroud for poetry and good cheer! Sign up for the open mic on the door. With the legend that is @ronsurreal and one man light-in-the-darkness @jonny_fluffypunk it's

Super delighted to have a new poem in the latest sold out edition of the London Mag 》 #REPOST @thelondonmagazine 'Stingers', a poem by @jlmmorton, from our sold out October / November 2024 issue. 🌱

Death table for the day of the dead 💀 I love this idea (thank you @clover.stroud 🤍) At times it feels like our little family has had an unfair amount of death - I asked my husband if he wanted to join in with his fam but he said 'there's no table

CW human remains. At the Hunterian, the most Samhain museum ever. Brilliant place. Ofc kids both loved and hated it and I told them if it hadn't been for medical advancements I wouldn't be here and nor would they, but what caught me off guard is

"Daily walks on the commons are where I do most of my writing in my head. And the land deeply informs my work - those epic vistas over the Severn Vale in particular give me the clarity I need to think and work out problems on the page." Del
