Fab evening at Cheltenham Poetry Festival last night with @ruthpadel.bsky.social @petitecreature1.bsky.social and Pat Edwards. Support the Festival. A great programme. @cheltpoetfest.bsky.social #poetry

Thank you Anna, Zoe & the @cheltpoetfest.bsky.social team for an amazing opening night! An honour to witness @ruthpadel.bsky.social's stunning reading from "Girl". @patwelshpoolpoetry.bsky.social cast her keen eye over Marys of religion, myth and history. Monica Piersky, fascinating folkloric poems.

I love beautiful coincidences. One of the poetry inspirations for Daughter of Fire, my poetry collection about Margaret of Anjou, was @ruthpadel.bsky.social. I recently found a copy of Ruth's 1993 collection Angel & its bookplate was from a library in Angers (Margaret country)! #Poetry #MedievalSky
