“She says she’s accomplished things in her thirty years she thought she never would, and she’s starting to get bored. I tell her I’ve made $650 from poetry in the last three years, before tax.”

'I want to take all the poets to a big farm. Established poets, emerging poets, submerging poets, all of them.'

Im so excited my chaotic fiction about poetry, farming, capitalism and orgies found its perfect home at @havehadhavehad thanks to @Aaron__Burch https://t.co/0HqknokTTY

It’s been an incredible 2022 with new books from many of our favourite authors - if you’re looking for something to read (or reread) over the holidays, here are some of our very favourites from the past year!

[Francis Cooke @frrcooke]

I got to write about the exceptional anthology No Other Place to Stand (ed. @JordanHamel_, @gorsebloom, @thetearooms & @ired0mi) for @LandfallNZ. It's a very good book about a very bad thing:

Great tasting notes in this review of @kotukutitihuia Tauhou “ this one’s for the lovers of language, lean prose-poetry you can dip in and out of and think about for hours. Best read beside a large body of water.”

[Claire Murdoch @MurdochClaire]

That 'someone' was me. Thanks @TheSpinoffTV for the opportunity to rank Reacher like the madwoman I was when I read them.

'Jordan Hamel’s debut collection is an honest, hilarious, frenzied, fast-moving little book.'
