I have been invited to read my poems to some people in Cornwall, but I have said No, because I don’t like going abroad and anyway my passport has expired.
I have been invited to contribute some poems to a magazine called “Unhygienic Genitalia”, but I won’t. I steer clear of things like that.
I have been praised “online” by a famous poet. He’s not famous for his poetry but he has a radio programme he does with poets. 40 years ago (40!) he said he would have me on it. I’ve never been on it, but I was on “Tatting Through the Ages with Mary Beard” and it went quite well.
I have been not sleeping well. Syntax issues have been keeping me awake.
I have been trying my hand at some visual poetry but it hasn’t turned out well. I think it might be because, deep down, I can’t see the point of it.
