Limited edition illustrated book of the material available now from our webshop or events only. (Join us at the Free Verse Poetry Book Fair TODAY Saturday 22/2, at Conway Hall to buy a copy in person!)
We are aiming to get BSL translations of some of the material, and this will also be on the website in about March, to coincide with the launch of the bookshop version of the book.
We had a bit of a technologically challenged evening at Albion Beatnik. I won’t go into the whys and wherefores but there’s no video, no photos and the sound recording cut out temporarily too.
Here’s what I managed to salvage!
All but the first few words of Wendy Gill reading A Little Favour
It’s twelfth night, and the official end of the festive season, so as you pack up your Christmas baubles, here’s something to cheer you up: your opportunity to experience the entire evening of Longest Night, in the same order as the audience, but without me waffling on in between, and without the mulled cider, unless you happen to have some to hand of course.
