Great range of papers at the @KayConference today! Honoured to be a part of it and absolutely delighted to have @JackieKayPoet read a selection of poetry and prose and talk with us afterwards! Touched by how authentic and genuine the discussion turned out. So much to think about!
THIS EVENING: a free reading and Q&A session with the multiple award-winning poet, novelist, short story-writer, children's author, memoirist and playwright Jackie Kay. Registration will remain open till the event begins.
