@rhea_seren It's an amazing thing this book! Your villanelle and Mark Sanders' corresponding collage are most mind-bendily haunting. I keep rerereading it and the image: terrifying and tender - they create a whole world together

@rhea_seren @yomadene @missholborow @Katie_Stockton @niapolly @rhystrimble @blackboughpoems I like the idea of having audio on there. I often listen to the recordings of poets on PennSound and Archive of the Now

@rhea_seren @yomadene @missholborow @Katie_Stockton @niapolly @rhystrimble @blackboughpoems Iain Sinclair's Lud Heat and Chris Torrance's The Magic Door showed me I could be a Welsh writer.
