Grace Notes @ Snarkattack

Just a short update – I got shortlisted for the Varuna Longlines competition. Alas, I didn’t get into the programme, but it was nice to hear that my folio was considered for a good while. Apparently, six or so poems at the end are weaker and need to be replaced with some better ones. Hopefully, I can do that, and reapply next year. Yea for some healthy goals!

I also found out this week that my poem ‘Knot’ will be showing up on the Optus Board in Federation Square as part of the Overload Poetry Festival, which runs from 3-14 September. I’m very excited and I don’t even know if I’ll actually be able to catch my own poem up there as it’s a electronic feed sort of thing.

I was lucky enough to attend some fabulous events as part of the Melbourne Writers’ Festival this year – more about that soon.
