Poetry at The Fringe – Sunday, 18 October 2020

It’s been a tough year for Poetry at The Fringe, as it’s been a tough year for everyone and everything. Events. Tough to sort and plan and adapt – and just as you’re going again you’re not. Poetry at The Fringe started. Then stopped. Then started again. And then stopped. The Fringe Bar was cautious […]

Preview: Guest Poet For This Month’s Poetry At The Fringe (Sun, Oct 18)

One Sunday a month there’s an event called Poetry at The Fringe. Almost everything you need to know is in the title there – it features poetry, at a venue called The Fringe Bar.

Poetry at The Fringe – Sunday, 17 November, 2019

I really enjoyed this month’s session at The Fringe. Wasn’t really feeling it last month but felt better about my own work this time around I guess – and just in general it was a very nice vibe. Another diverse open-mic with 15 poets performing, everything from sing-song and an actual song from a musician […]

Poetry at The Fringe – Sunday, 15 September, 2019

Back to The Fringe for some poetry. It was about celebrating Spring, though I either didn’t really process that or didn’t really care (and/or don’t have any Spring poems anyway). So I got up early, second poet this time, and read three short new poems. The first, Stuff, Not Nonsense I wrote late on Friday […]

Poetry at The Fringe – Sunday, 18 August, 2019

Maybe it was that I’d had two months off – but I think it was more than that, I think it was just a very good run…this was easily the best open-mic set, the best bunch, since I’ve been turning up on the semi-regular for Poetry At The Fringe. I was in the early bracket […]
