I'm very pleased to have three new poems in the next issue of Ambit magazine, issue 220, and will be reading one or two at the launch event on the 21st April.
It will take place at the Sun and 13 Cantons in Soho, which is a nice little pub and comes at just the time of year when a night out in Soho really comes into its own, so hopefully see you there.
A new poem up today on Caught by the River.
And I have also written an article in praise of the democratic nature of lager in the new beer-themed issue of their fanzine, An Antidote to Indifference, available here.
Here's how, cheers, sante etc...
There is a small interview with me about birdwatching in the spring issue of Jocks & Nerds magazine, but way more importantly, there are also interviews with Tim Dee, Chris Watson, Ceri Levy, Matt Sewell, Darren Rock and David Callahan, who all discuss their bird-obsession.
Magazine stockists listed here, for anyone interested in having a read.
Unfortunately, the Faber New Poets event at Keats House this week has been cancelled.
A new poem up on Caught by the River today if anyone fancies a read...

This Thursday evening I'll be reading alongside Declan Ryan, or No.12 as I know him, and Emily Beart-Albrecht at a poetry and spoken-word event in the award-winning shop/art gallery A Pop-Up Wonderland.
This looks like a great space, doing interesting things, and I can't wait to check it out.
Full details of the event are here.
POP-UP POETRY: AMERICANA & FOLK
6.30pm on Friday 20th February 2015
Box Office Stage at Kings Place
90 York Way, London N1 9AG
This event is free to attend but spaces are limited so book yours now!
Poet in the City presents the first in a series of free pre-concert poetry events at Kings Place. Acclaimed poets Will Burns and Malene Engelund perform poetry and music which nods to Americana and is grounded in folk roots. This special session takes place just before the Diana Jones + Martin Simpson concert in Hall One.
Hi all,
The events page has been updated today, in order that anyone so inclined can have a quick glance here and find out where I can be found performing my amazing 'Reading Aloud' act over the next few months... hopefully see a few of you out on the road.
This weekend I will be reading at The Albion Beatnik in Oxford.
This shop really is a place to celebrate, and it's an honour to be reading there. I've been looking forward to it for weeks.
Their blog is criminally, but fittingly, un-up-to-date, but here it is anyway...

And this article tells you everything you need to know about the place...

I'll be there on Saturday evening, the 13th, reading alongside Jo Bell and George Chopping. Should be really great. See you there.
