A new poem in the Spring 2020 Issue of Poetry Wales

I am pleased to have a poem 'The Carnivore Boyfriends' featured in the new Spring issue of Poetry Wales which is having a virtual launch this Thursday. Ben is hopefully helping me sort an audio recording of it for the website later today too. Tune in on the night for some great readings and the open mic, and keep an eye on the website for further featured poet musings and multimedia.

Join us in May for our second virtual First Thursday which this month is a Poetry Wales magazine special!

We’ll be joined by PW editor Jonathan Edwards and guest readers Alan Perry, Taylor Edmonds and Abeer Ameer.

The readings will be followed by our usual open mic which you can sign up for in the chat during the event.

This event will be hosted on Zoom. Find the details you need to join us below. Please email sarahjohnson@serenbooks.com for the meeting password.

Gordon was joined on the podium by two of our long-standing members, Steve Pritchard and Angela Edwards Rigby, who are no strangers to receiving CWC awards and prizes.
