Rocked the Celtic Club yesterday, it was my first reading for a long while, and possibly my longest reading ever. Good to get a chance to stand up and shout at people for 20 minutes. Thank you to the audience for listening and not leaving.

Yesterday I had the rare pleasure of seeing Hot Soup Girl live in poetic performance, reading some of her classic pieces, including the one about handkerchiefs. The Babble venue in Fitzroy was pretty packed for a Sunday, which was encouraging to see (though I suspect most of the attendees were part of the Visible Ink…
