Hooray for Anne Carson! Maybe later today I'll unbox and unfold Nox and let it devastate me all over again. It must have been 7 or 8 years now so perhaps I am ready

It seems oddly fitting to read these 2 fine books from @brokensleepbooks.bsky.social in a dimly lit pub, forgetting a looming appointment... I particularly recommend @jakeareynolds.bsky.social 's dream-like journeys & G B Clarkson's imagined holiday with George Eliot!

If you're in Norwich and are a literary translator/are interested in literary translation/know NOTHING but are curious, this from @writerscentre.bsky.social looks a good way to spend a Wednesday evening in a couple of weeks. More info/book here: nationalcentreforwriting.org.uk/events/itd-2...

News I very much did not expect. Delighted that We Both Say has been selected as the Autumn '26 pamphlet choice by the Poetry Book Society!

Long shot, but are there any Literature academics out there who would be willing to part with their print copy of the journal English from Spring 2025? It's the special issue I edited on poetry archives, but it is proving very difficult to obtain an extra copy from the publisher...

We Both Say maps a long-distance relationship across difference, distance, & the interference of the world's crises. The poems move between letters, storms, & time zones, finding in the gap between two people a space intimate & politically charged www.brokensleepbooks.com/product-page...

Book cover for We Both Say by Jake Reynolds, published by Broken Sleep Books.Book cover for We Both Say by Jake Reynolds, published by Broken Sleep Books. The background is a muted taupe, with the title and author name in dark olive-green serif type at the top left. Centred on the cover is a watercolour illustration of a corked glass terrarium jar containing green leafy plants, small rocks, soil, and a layer of sand at the base, with visible white roots beneath the surface.

Rumours that my book is still set to come out at the end of the month, and that author copies arrived today, are devastatingly true www.brokensleepbooks.com/product-page...

poem idea: start every line with "Richard Dawkins concludes" and basically it's just a litany of things that make him sound deeply friendless

My first book, We Both Say, will be out in the world on May 31st. Pre-order here: www.brokensleepbooks.com/product-page... While you're there, have a browse & grab something else. There are few publishers where there truly is something for everyone, but @brokensleepbooks.bsky.social is one of them

Very happy to have a new poem, 'Someone You Know and Someone You Don't', in the latest issue of @poetrybrum.bsky.social, which is full of treats and can (and should) be bought from their website

Happily, I passed my viva with minor corrections yesterday afternoon and am now the sort of doctor who will be of no use at all if you're, say, bleeding out on a plane. Thank you to my supervisors Tiffany Atkinson & Jeremy Noel-Tod, and examiners Luke Kennard & Holly Corfield Carr!

Submitted a PhD today. If I was interesting enough to have haters, boy - what a bad day for them this would be. Or, depending on their hater ethos, a great day. Would the haters and I perhaps be on the same side today? Sadly, we'll never know

Really happy that Peter Gizzi won the TS Eliot Prize. The new Ela Minus album is great. New Perfume Genius song is too. I hand in my PhD very soon and will be able to read books for 'pleasure' again

For any Norwich locals - evidence that Prince of Wales Road wasn't always a hellscape. I believe regular patrons of Popworld are partial to Willmotts Willbro House as a genre
