BYT: On The Radio/ Dead Poets

Bright Young Things Logo

April 2010

We made it! 24 hours of poetry (I think I was ‘awake’ for about 40 hours in all, and no dead poets. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Thanks to all who came along! You can listen again to my interview on BBC Radio Wales (21 minutes and 52 seconds in). We were raising money for the Hay Poetry Jamboree.
I am shattered but shall write more soon. Until then you can catch me reading a story at Telling Tales in Cardiff on Sunday 2 May (2pm, Cardiff Arms Cafe, Westgate Street, FREE)  and then I’ll be reading poems at Milgi, also in Cardiff, with the Big Fuss residency from 7pm that evening.
Enjoy the sunshine!
