@LN_howley @Gail_McConnell_ Yes! from Fothermather. They particularly like Untitled / Villanelle

@Gail_McConnell_ I know @JackGQuin had some poems on our final-year Irish Writing module.

Always awkward to ask this kind of thing, but here goes: do you teach any of my poems, or use my poems in workshops / events / any kind of interesting public happening?! If so, I'd love to know about it.

@MeganGirdwood1 @LeverhulmeTrust @LLCatEdinburgh Congratulations Megan!!
