I am so excited to be taking part in Bournemouth Writing Festival! Come and join me for a poetry writing walk, taking inspiration from the city – from its shops to its beach – as we stroll. Or come along to my free poetry drop-in at the Poetry Marquee to have a go at haiku or just chat poetry with me.
