The 6th & final (sob) ep of 'Demystifying Poetry' is out. I talk to poetry educator & anthologist Liz Ison about reading poetry in care homes & pubs, Keats, & (T) Swift. If you've enjoyed the series I'd be grateful for a review as I'd love to record more! https://t.co/4HxTZzsLgn

Episode 4 of 'Demystifying Poetry' is out. I talk to the wonderful poet Jacqueline Saphra about forms, a poet's 'home form', and poetry as activism. Listeners can help us solve the mystery of who sent Jacqueline's '100 Lockdown Sonnets' to my home... https://t.co/VrGMdLj6tb

Reading Dickens aloud as a new year resolution! Yes!

[Jordan Evans-Hill @JDEvansHill]

The problem with making a new year resolution public is that you have to stick with it. 🤪

So if you fancy holding me to it, head to the @DickensMuseum youtube channel and subscribe!

[Sir John Soane's Museum 🏛️🖼️ @SoaneMuseum]

Soane’s eclectic yet precise arrangements are enduringly inspirational! 🤯❤️

He wrote of the ‘succession of fanciful effects’ that created a ‘poetry of architecture’ at Lincoln’s Inn Fields; a place he built as a unity of the arts, a centre of learning for centuries to come. ✨
