Creative in the Countryside...

Really pleased to announce that I am now Poetry Editor at Creative Countryside Magazine!

Earlier this year I wrote a piece on taking inspiration from a familiar landscape for their Spring issue (still available here).  I loved working on it, and have been a fan of the magazine since its first issue back in Autumn of last year.  It's a beautifully produced magazine.  Although the title of my book is The Other City, I grew up in the countryside and take enormous inspiration from the natural world now that I'm back in it after a few years of living in cities.



The ethos of the magazine is one I can fully get behind:  Wholehearted slow living.  Embracing the seasons.  The sharing of stories and traditions.  A sensitivity to the environment and the ways in which it might inspire us.  It's rare among magazines for being entirely advert free which says a lot.  Its focus is not just poetry but on simple, sincere creative non-fic from around the UK that aims to capture the magic of the turning year.

As poetry editor I aim to source diverse work with an emphasis on up-and-coming poets.  If this is you, I would love you see some work!

  1. There are additionally lay bets, during which people wager on whether or not one thing is not going to occur before a specified time. In the state of Nevada, USA, tax receipts just from sports betting 카지노사이트 totaled $248.8 million in fiscal year 2017. People with gambling habit don’t always gamble regularly. Together, gambling pursuits spent greater than $440 million on the measures—doubling the previous report for spending on ballot campaigns. Tribes and on-line gaming corporations alike are certain to spend lots of of hundreds of thousands extra in future lobbying and ballot measures—whatever it takes to win.
