This is going to be a huge weekend for #poetry and for me, in particular. It’s an amazing shortlist. Sorry for sounding callow, but stuff like the #Eliots doesn’t happen to people like me.
First up on Sunday the Readings … #TSEliotPrize

Heart full, mind buzzing as I ride the bus home from the TS Eliot Prize evening. Handy that one of my layers has book-sized inner pockets. I set out with one (for the forward journey) and I'm returning home with three. Any guesses which nominee I purchased?!

After the very enlightening katyevansbush.bsky.social workshops on the TS Eliot Prize shortlisted books at the weekend, I'm now deciding which of them I'd like to read in full.... certainly Peter Gizzi's winning collection. Also Gboyega Odubanjo's 'Adam', and ...? #poetry #TSEliotPrize

So, I’ve read the selection of poems in the Readers’ Notes. So many to love & return to, with such diverse voices, styles, concerns, stemming from many different traditions. I’ve been invited to the Awards & as usual will be very excited to hear the result! #tseliotprize
