I talk about music, writing, poetry and home in this interview. A life of writing, music and poetry and I wouldn't have it any other way.

A lovely interview with poet and singer-songwriter @KaeSun in @the_table_read, discussing his upcoming pamphlet Flood Season, out from @flippedeye on 2nd December. Spot the reference to the idea of home as a sound 🔊

I'm sorry, @Parcel2Go officially has the worst customer service known to delivery. We sent a package to @PoetryBookSoc two weeks ago - TWO WEEKS!! - they have not delivered it. #Evri accepts that they misplaced the parcel & didn't deliver it, yet Parcel2Go is rejecting our claim.
