I’m very glad that my poem ‘Fret’ is included in Craft of Care, a vital new anthology exploring caregiving, edited by Claire Walker and Charley Barnes, published by Black Pear Press. All proceeds from sales will be donated to St Richard’s Hospice in Worcester, and everyone is welcome at the online launch on Wednesday 25th February.

We cover a range of topics including art and poetry, and who we would invite to a Pre-Raphaelite dinner party! Please join us, and have a listen at this link:
