It's tough for literary organisations at the moment, with lots vying for the same ACE funding.
We love @brokensleep and hosted their Cornish Modern Poetries poets for #WPF23 - buy a copy of the anthology, it's absolutely brilliant 💪
We're giving this one last push. Thank you to everybody who has supported us so far by buying a book or sharing this around. You've all been amazing, and this is indicative of the strength of collaboration.
