Beautiful to be able to respond to the last minute opportunity to take up a place on a writing retreat at @moniackmhor with the outstandingly generous, gracious & brilliant poet tutors @hannahlowepoet & @BlueBirdTail All, in this great insistence of light!

@NiallCPoetry @MungoMirrorball @ellenmcateer It was mercifully swift, there being few cars once we louped from the M8 to the long spine of the A9. Glorious to wake in sunshine above a veil of haar, and Black Isle only slowly becoming herself. Hoping you, like all the letters, reached your right destination peacefully too.

I feel so fortunate to be stowed within friendships founded & forged across the search for ways to speak the world we are living; develop meaning & empathy, imagine a plurality of possibilities @dizzylynn is one of the best companions through it all ❤️ #poetry

@LouLouMach It's astounding to be part of this great assemblage along with you & so many others. Jack Dreich has been immensely instrumental in sustaining the flourishing of contemporary poetry in these isles over the last few years. Such a moment 💖
