I'm glad to say that Portsmouth Poetry Society invited her to read as a friend at the reading we have planned for National Poetry Day, Oct 2nd, before this success and that she agreed. I only hope now that she will still be available and it is still on the originally agreed terms ( ! ).
So please put the date in your diary when PPS will be launching the new edition of Calliope, because now it is officially an even better event than it was going to be.
Well played, Portsmouth. You see, there really is something going on down here.
