Bit of news: I’ve been commissioned as the Sunniside Poet in Residence, and I’m super excited to be producing a new body of work in the Sunniside quarter. What a lush start to the holidays!

We're back Tonight from 9pm on ALL FM 96.9 📻: Jonathan Purkiss writer and Helen Wilkinson of @King_Ink_Poets

[GCSE MACBETH @GCSE_Macbeth]

Probably my best ever find in Macbeth.

The Macbeths refer to the kingship as the CROWN: something easy to assume or remove, that can be taken on and off, like a costume piece.

Malcolm's side refer to it as the THRONE: some permanent, fixed, to which the rightful can ascend.
