ICYMI: Conversations with Baldwin: LIVE at @Bristol_Beacon was a VIBE✨ The night was quintessential live literature with poetry, dance, and film in dialogue with the words #JamesBaldwin left behind. 📸 Manoel Akure wordsofcolour.co.uk/conversations-… #ConversationswithBaldwin

Shout out to @Vanessa_Kisuule @ApplesAndSnakes and @InuaEllams for contributing to the weeks bread.

3. You wouldn't wake up and Run 13.1 Miles without training. Expecting to write a novel in one sitting might be a stretch. Easy Runs, Long Runs and Tempo Runs = Reading, Writing, Editing, Talking

Three big take aways from my creative practice this week. 1. It doesn't have to be a solitary journey. A second pair of eyes or thoughts can change the game.

A woman who champions the mother lands and celebrates the hard work and talent of our people.

I love the Craft and the Process Obsessing about the product can get in the way of the Process

Sustaining motivation can be a challenge. My reframe for today is to reverse the effort. Take in Art.

It's Monday and I want to live it on purpose . I want to write I want to create

@Vanessa_Kisuule @aireadee I will never not be hypnotised by good writier, on top of that annotated pages of a book. Today I lived.

@aireadee Please excuse my artless scribblings, but this poem in particular is a brilliant, devastating thing:

The most startling poetry collection I've had the pleasure to read in a good while. The poetry and economic theory mash up I had no idea I needed @aireadee

@RovingRoshi Have also been working through the proof of his upcoming collection for a review I'm co-writing and it's infuriatingly good. Dude doesn't know how to miss!

If I ever write anything half as good as some of my favourite Terrance Hayes poems (of which I have many) I will be so very happy. That man makes me marvel at what language can do when we double double dare it to startle us.

@Vanessa_Kisuule Gonna visit these. His American Sonnets always catch me. That's a read I like to orbit back around to.

@RovingRoshi Too many to count but Wind In A Box is one I constantly return to, as well as his sonnet about James Baldwin
