Autumn kicks off with publication of Isabel's work in three anthologies -'Kinds of Cool: A Collection of Jazz Poetry: Volume II; Morecambe Festival Poetry Anthology and the 'Motorcitysixty Winners' Anthology' promoted by Clevedon Litfest. More details on these will be published shortly. Isabel's latest collection Usonia - An American Peculiar, is out now, priced £10.
The big news for the autumn however, is the launch of our new spoken word ensemble Hi-Art and Mischief. Bristol is blessed with a cornucopia of spoken word talent, and we have selected the best exponents for a series of events to take us through autumn and into the New Year. First up -Edson 'Doc' Burton, Patrick Chandler, and Jeremy Toombs join Isabel for 'Take it to the Man' at St. George’s, Bristol. Tickets available via the St George's website. They will be joined for two more shows in October and November by Melanie Branton. There's also a new show pencilled in Wedmore, Somerset in late September, featuring Alex Bickley, Tim Munson, Charis Owen, John Rea and Steve Selby. More details about these shows can be found on the poetry page here.
