Great meet up of the PoetryLit! crew at the Rotterdam Poetry Festival - we were audience, not performers.   A great pleasure to meet the two men I had not met in real life before- despite being colleagues via the internet. Milla, founder and m.c. of PoetryLit! suggested  the team meet up in her country's international festival. A fantastic festival - I do recommend it.

We were lucky enough to hear the amazing poet, Ada Limon, American poet laureate.  And in between poetry events we managed to explore the amazing city - the most exciting experience a water taxi ride through the docks, and the sight of a walking tree. It must be the influence of the poetry!

Writers Rebel feature Rewilding Brodgar

Yay! Rewilding Brodgar is featured on the Writers Rebel website.  How great to be paired with Rachel Carson's Silent Spring.

Writers Rebel Newsletter

Dear Friends,   Rachel Carson’s ground-breaking work, Silent Spring, a classic of ecological literature, is not just a deeply-researched investigation into the damaging effects of agricultural pesticides but an evocative warning about the loss of the heartbreakingly beautiful music of the natural world. This week, we showcase an exciting new project developed by poet Stephanie Green and sound artist Sonja Heyer. They are highlighting the relevance of Carson’s message by drawing attention to the sounds of endangered species in their natural habitats. To read a little more about the project, visit Writers Rebel. Or to start their addictive, mesmerising 15-minute sound walk in Orkney straight away, visit https://rewildingbrodgar.netlify.app/. Love and rebellion,   Writers Rebel
