Long Field Loop was in Gdańsk 4-7 June, with thanks to @ScotBooksInt and the University of Gdańsk - and much gratitude to @SzubaMonika. Readings at the IKM and University, plus amazing encounters with the warmest people at the birthplace of the Solidarity movement. Love + loops!
LONG FIELD LOOP launches at @ByreTheatre St Andrews, 23 May - 6pm (UK). Join me in-person or online (both free, booking 👇) for readings + a performance with Alex South. @EthicsEnergy @CreativeScots

When your favourite beauty YouTuber is also a poet. 💄✒️Julia Hungry by Hannah Louise Poston (Waywiser Press). Also a brilliant, authentic + elegant example of how to hold the various parts of our lives. Unsurprisingly, preorders briefly overwhelmed the Waywiser website. 💄
