Thank you Nii – it’s great to be part of Flipped Eye, and really interesting to hear about how it came to be. I’ve enjoyed the incwriters residency – participating and learning all about the other writers. Looking forward to the future!

I have missed many a writing opportunity while working or at school because I didn’t have the right materials. Since handwriting notes never seems to come smoothly to me, I find myself at a loss without my trusty keyboard (even if it’s a tiny one on a phone!).

TGW and I went on holiday to Gettysburg in May and only used our computer once – to find a restaurant – and otherwise we didn’t use phones, e-mail, or anything at all. In this case, it was a good thing, because we both needed to escape the constant reminders of a lot of tough things going on. We will have another internet-free weekend coming up soon, and I think those are only really good for one-on-one weekends like that. They give us time to learn from each other.

I understand the need to keep up with e-mail though! I always feel like I miss out if I skip a day.

Some inspiring stories of commitment and passion here. Agree with Janett, as a writer it is easy to brush over the great work done by editors. I expect to be making a number of train journeys over the coming months and I will make sure I speak to everyone I sit near, just in case they turn out to be my next publisher/editor!

Nii,great to read this. I can’t wait to read the other blogs as this seems like the hidden history of poetry in the UK. Thanks for this. You are a wonderful, inspirational, devoted, dedicated and hardworking publisher and writer.
