Myself and Catherine Ryan are both thrilled to be on the long-list for the Desmond O Grady poetry competition, that's 2 of the Millwheel Writers represented which is good stuff indeed! Catherine's poem "Snapshots" is a truly impressive piece, about photography, family, technology, time. Brilliant. My poem "Plant Reproductive Material Law" is pretty much what it says on the tin, a look at the new EU directive which seeks to criminalize seed-saving, and puts even more control over food into the hands of giant multinationals. Etc. So fingers crossed for both of us!
