Online events...

By Kim Moore

I hope you have all had a chance to enjoy the summer and have had some sort of a break! Just a very quick post from me to let you know about a few upcoming events.

I host an online reading series for Wordsworth Grasmere, and our next guest poet is David Morley on September 10th, 2025. David will be reading from his latest collection Passion, published by Carcanet. We will also have an open mic session - these slots get booked up very fast, so if you would like one, please click on this link for more information about how to book a slot. They are themed each time, and for this event, the theme is birds! So if you have a poem with a bird in it, come and read alongside David.

Poetry Business Online Workshops

I’ve recommended these workshops before, but will do so again as there are lots coming up, including that Clare Shaw, who is back from their Long Walk, and the composer of our Substack Theme Tune Amanda Dalton! Do check out the link above, as there are spaces left in many of the workshops.

Amanda’s workshop is called ‘Adaptation for Poets?’ and is happening Tuesday 26th August - tickets available here
