Three recent books available now from bluediode.co.uk . Good Sons by Tim Craven, Recital by @MarianneMacRae , and Kiss My Earth by Alice Willitts. Info, sample poems, etc at the link. Have a look!

ALT Three books. Tim Craven's features multicoloured gravestones facing a similarly multicoloured landscape. Marianne MacRae's is a purple background with a three legged green creature inside a turquoise circle. And Alice Willitts's is an orange yellow background with a dark blue portrait of a woman with big hair and eyes and the words Kiss My Earth replacing her nose and mouth.
Is anyone I know still on here? If so, come to this event on Thursday night to hear some poems from my new collection.
I have one in here — thanks, NOR
NOR Issue 35 is now available!

Sharing one of my favourite poems - and also one of my favourite performances of a poem - on National Poetry Day.
Right now, there are thirty-two wars happening around the world. This is Ilya Kaminsky reading 'We Lived Happily During the War'.
