November and December 2017 saw me settled back in Manchester, working on my Masters and taking part in numerous writing groups and events.
I had poetry published in several magazines: "Orbits" and "Gold" in Sincerely Magazine, "Salamanca" and "Peaches" in The Cluny MCR, and "The cows" in Riggwelter Press. I attended The Cluny MCR's launch, which was a fun night.
I also attended the launch of the anthology Introduction X: The Poetry Business Book of New Poets at Manchester Central Library. I read a number of my poems, which was a great experience.
I took part in Writing Squad workshops with Andrew McMillan and Malika Booker, which were really useful and enjoyable.
I completed my first year as editor of the Word Life section of Now Then Manchester with two special issues. November's was a flash fiction special, and December's was a collaboration with Manchester Creative Writing Society. I have more big plans for Word Life, so watch this space!
Thanks for reading - look out for my general 2017 review, which is coming up soon.
Have a wonderful 2018.
