You know that cliche 'they're all winners'? Well, when it comes to book shortlists like this, it really is true. Of course, I hope children have enjoyed Jakub's Otter, but I've read the other books and they're all beautifully written and totally gripped me. Impossible decisions.

It’s that time of year again. Congratulations everyone, such fine poems!

Just adored Tyger.

Exciting to see Lorraine Mariner getting 3rd prize and Carole Bromley @rachelpoet & Victoria Gatehouse being Highly Commended, all members of ZigZag Stanza. Fabulous poems from all of them!

I’m asking the same - beautiful, soulful writing.

Looking forward to having a chat about otters and life and stuff.

I love the cadence of this.

My current read is this - a great sequel to Zinc. Really enjoying following the next wartime exploits of the 3 main characters, expertly drawn to display their distinct individuality. ⁦Troika Books⁩ ⁦Sue Klauber⁩
