I was meant to be cleaning the house and I was, honestly, but every now and then I checked back into my email and to Twitter. That’s how I came across the Battered Moons Poetry Competition – I love the title – which is now open for 2015 entries.
It got me thinking about my files full of poems – most of which still need re-visiting, some of which are past saving, but some of which, when I came to read them, (more welcome distraction from domstic chores) surprised me. I think I’ll enter. For one thing I love Pascale Petit’s poetry and she is one of the judges. For another it will make me make my poems the best they can be and for another if you love writing as much as I do, it’s exciting and fun and a whole heap better than cleaning the house.
Even more exciting the Iron Press launch for my story collection, Millie and Bird and Tales of Paradise…on Friday. I’m getting nervous
Great and telling advice. It was a great launch for a great book. Millie Rules! w
Thanks Wendy and thanks for being there! Avril
