Autumn 2009 Programme

I've just posted the programme of events for the autumn 2009. Hope it looks as exciting to you as it does to me. You'll notice that there are only three poets listed rather than the usual four. That just seems more manageable for the organisers.

I was wondering whether a short open-mic at the beginning of each event would be a good idea - about, say, up to four readers reading for three minutes each? We might discover new writers that way and could invite them back to do longer spots in future months. But I'd be interested to hear views on this.

sounds like a great idea there are always people looking for short spots to try out new poems me for one

Great! Holly, if you would like to read in one of the 3-minute slots, just drop me an email (address at my profile) or turn up on the night and I'll add you to the list. We can only have a maximum of 4 per night, but if there's no space for anyone on the night, they'll get priority for a future event.
