I had a brilliant few days running a table of my books at the Small Publishers Fair 2023. It is always really so friendly, inspiring, generous. I met so many interesting new people and caught up with dozens of friends. And many friends helped me on my stall too, huge thanks to them Simon Tyrrell, Lisa Blackwell, Jules Sprake, Bob T Bright, Ailsa Holland, Bev Frydman, Patrick Cosgrove. Thanks to my collaborators that made it so special too Dominic Jaeckle, Pat Randle and many others. And to those who run the fair, long may it continue.
Three new publications were launched, which included a very special letterpress edition made with Pat Randle and Angie Butler. We shared it, Pat and I, at an event as part of the library reading program, and can be watched here. We discussed the unique process, then read the poems, then fielded some questions.
