LOOSE MUSE & ANGEL POETRY

Hi gang,

 

I think there’s definitely something happening out in the ether that is making everyone have to work a hundred times harder than normal, and causing horrible delays in every aspect of life, broken relationships, disturbance and mayhem.  Or is that just a side-effect of getting older!!?  All of this is a convoluted way of getting to the point, which is that when I arrived back in the country from my recent US tour, I hit the ground running, and have been trying to send this mail-out for the past 3 nights without absolutely no success.    So here it is at last, late, but perfectly formed and a glorious banner of poetry and poets to come. 

 

Atlanta, Austin and San Antonio were fab, and I would urge you all if you can to register for next year’s Austin International Poetry Festival, as it’s a brilliant event with hundreds of poets from all over the US, leavened by a good sprinkling of internationals to liven things up. 

 

But before that, we have the usual bevy of poetic beauties to add May-time shine to our calendar, so why not check out the following gigs if you want to be inspired, stimulated and stirred.   First, on Wednesday, May 14th  there’s LOOSE MUSE at the Poetry Café, 22 Betterton Street, London WC2 (closest tube = Covent Garden).  This is London’s only regular event for women writers of all genres, with a warm and wonderful open mike sharing session, plus two featured writers each month.   Featured in May will be Adrienne Dines, international novelist coming all the way from Walton to share the pros and cons of actually getting that novel onto the page and published.   Also featuring on that night will be the multi-talented Sara-Mae Tuson, who as well as being a very gifted poet is also Acting Editor of The London Magazine and Trespass, so will have a wealth of information on getting published to share.  Special Guest Poet joining us all the way from Spain is Ellen Zaks, with her own brand of poetic verve and passion. The night starts at 8.00 p.m -  £5.00/£3.00 concs.  And there are plenty of chances for you to come read your own work  in the open mike readings from the floor.    

 

Next we have ANGEL POETRY on Thursday 15th May  kicking off as usual at 7.00 p.m.  This monthly poetry reading is at Borders Bookshop at the Angel in the N1 Centre Parkfield Street, London N1 – the shopping mall opposite Angel tube station.    We continue with our triple bill of feature poets in May, each with their unique own way of seeing the world and sharing their work.   First up is young Persian actress, performer, and now poet Maryem Hashemi, reading her own work for the first time at Angel Poetry, followed by fabulous West Country mistress of the spoken word in both English and Cornish Sue Johns, and last but not least another chance to see Ellen Zaks bring her poetry all the way from Andalucia to the Angel. There are also floor spots available on the night, so just turn up and let me know you want to read.    

 

And both Loose Muse and Angel Poetry are growing in popularity, so come along and share the passion and the joy.

LOOSE MUSE & ANGEL POETRY

Hi gang,

 

You’re getting this mailout a little earlier than usual, because I’m going to the US at the crack of dawn tomorrow morning to be a poet for the next couple of weeks, and so I wanted to get information out before I go.  This also means, of course, that I won’t be around for either April’s Loose Muse, or Angel Poetry.  But both gigs are definitely happening, and will be guest hosted by two of my favourite poets.  And of course, if you happen to be in either Texas or Georgia, you might like to rock up and catch me in Austin, San Antonio or Atlanta

 

With spring just a hairs-breadth away (honest…despite the snow, the air smells different), why  not check out the following gigs to put some warmth back in your veins.   First, on Wednesday, April 9th there’s LOOSE MUSE at the Poetry Café, 22 Betterton Street, London WC2 (closest tube = Covent Garden).  This is London’s only regular event for women writers of all genres, with a warm and wonderful open mike sharing session, plus two featured writers each month.   Featured in April will be the multi-talented poet, actress and performer Aliese Kellner-Joyce bringing us a segment of her kaleidoscopic work – high octane energy and forceful words to mesmerize.  Also featuring on that night the award-winning Annie Brechin who will be reading from some of her high quality poetry and sharing her views on how to get published in poetry magazines.  The night starts at 8.00 p.m -  £5.00/£3.00 concs.  And there’s also chances for you to come and share and explore work in the open mike readings from the floor.   Guest Host for April will be the warm and wonderful Naomi Woddis, to keep you happy on the night.

 

Next we have ANGEL POETRY on Thursday 10th April  kicking off as usual at 7.00 p.m.  This monthly poetry reading is at Borders Bookshop at the Angel in the N1 Centre Parkfield Street, London N1 – the shopping mall opposite Angel tube station.    March continues with the poetic treat, as we again feature three poets each having a very different style and approach to their work. Guest Host for the night is poet, entrepreneur and founder of Tall Lighthouse publishing, the inimitable Les Robinson, who will be introducing a bevy of three poets as features for the night – first up Janice Fixter followed by Drea King, and last but not least the wonder Tom Chivers,- truly a trio of multi-varied talent that has had poetry lovers awestruck all over the capital and beyond.   There are also floor spots available on the night, so just turn up and let Les know you want to read.    

 

And both Loose Muse and Angel Poetry are growing in popularity, so come along and share the passion and the joy.

 

Love, always

LOOSE MUSE & ANGEL POETRY

MARCH 2008

 

Hi gang,

 

At last and oh joy and rapture, I have moved back into my flat and it feels totally wonderful to be back ‘home’ again.  From my window, sitting at my writing desk, I have the most brilliant view of St Paul’s Cathedral, and about a million miles of sky, which on a sunny day is just inspirational and never ceases to make me smile.  I’m slowly getting out of the Cardboard City that has been my home for what seems like forever, and it’s fab to have space again instead of the cupboard that I was living in in 2007.  Still have to get hooked up on broadband, so still not 100% sorted out, so it hang in there with my work e mail for a while longer. 

 

March is a seriously cool month poetry wise, so why not get the spring in your step poetized with some of the events I’ve got lined up for Easter month.. First, on Wednesday, March 12th there’s LOOSE MUSE at the Poetry Café, 22 Betterton Street, London WC2 (closest tube = Covent Garden).  This is London’s only regular event for women writers of all genres, with a warm and wonderful open mike sharing session, plus two featured writers each month.   Featured in March is the incredibly perspicacious London writer Maggie Sullivan giving us the flavour of life as she sees it with her own powerful brand of poetry to leave you captivated and mesmirised.  Also featuring, and joining us all the way from Windermere will be the multi-talented Cumbrian poet, performer, novelist and small press publisher Gill Hands.  Gill will be reading from her own fabulous collections of work, as well as exploring the pro’s and con’s of co-running Wild Women Press up there in the Cumbrian wilds, and I know she has a wealth of good stuff to share with us all.  The night starts at 8.00 p.m -  £5.00/£3.00 concs.  And there’s also chances for you to come and share and explore work in the open mike readings from the floor.

 

Next we have ANGEL POETRY on Thursday 13th March, kicking off as usual at 7.00 p.m.  This monthly poetry reading is at Borders Bookshop at the Angel in the N1 Centre Parkfield Street, London N1 – the shopping mall opposite Angel tube station.    March continues with the poetic treat, as we again feature three poets each having a very different style and approach to their work. First we have poet, entrepreneur and founder of Tall Lighthouse publishing, the inimitable Les Robinson sharing some of his quietly distinctive poetry with the Angel audience again.  Then, featuring for the first time at Angel Poetry, Vicky Wilson giving us a full-flavour taste of her finely-tuned and lip-smackingly well-crafted poetry to make us want second helpings of everything.  And finally, sharing some of work from her first chapbook, the potent Katrice Williams, with poetry that spreads its wings from the badlands of the USA all the way to China, via Africa and back. It’s a free event that also includes an open mike …all poets welcome. 

 

In both cases you can just sign up on the night or e me at agnes.meadows@discover.org.uk before if you want a floor spot.

 

And both Loose Muse and Angel Poetry are growing in popularity, so come along and share the passion and the joy.

 

And just to add spice to the soup, I also have a series of gigs in March, both in London and overseas, so wherever you are, why not come along and see me in action elsewhere. In date order, here’s what I’m doing:

 

Monday 10TH March – 7.00 p.m. - I’m at the Troubadour, 265 Old Brompton Road, South Kensington, SW5 9JA for the launch of the next edition of the capital’s oldest literary mag, the London Magazine, which has been running since 1735.  I’ve got a couple of poems in this next edition so will be joining the other readers for a feast of words.

 

18th March – is my birthday – no gigs, but lots of celebratory thoughts.

 

Thursday 20th March – 7.00 p.m. – I’m at the Whitechapel Art Gallery, as one of the 6 poets chosen to launch the Apples & Snakes/Poetry Book Society Soundblast project, which is all about promoting poets with CD’s.  The Whitechapel is at 80-82 Whitechapel High Street, E1 7QX.  And it’s a free event, so come along and hear me strut my stuff.  Red Shoes guaranteed!!!

 

Wednesday 26th March– 6.30-8.00 I have a reading with fellow poets Ruth O’Callaghan and Rosemary Norman of “What Not to do About the War…” at Chelsea Library, 16 John Islip Street, SW1P 4JU.  Another chance to hear the three of us perform our special collaboration, this time with music.

 

And then I’m in America starting off with:

Sunday 30th  March – Feature at the Java Monkey Speaks, in Atlanta, Georgia, USA

Monday 31st March – Feature at the HideOut in Sixth Street, Austin, Texas, USA.

Plus a whole host of other features, readings and workshops in Austin and San Antonio Texas.

 

Love, always

LOOSE MUSE & ANGEL POETRY

Hi gang,

I thought I’d do my mail-out a little earlier this month, as there are a few extra’s I’d like to plug for later this month, as well as what Loose Muse and Angel Poetry have to offer in February.  There’s quite a lot to share, so here goes:

 

First, on Wednesday, February 13th there’s LOOSE MUSE with a real humdinger of an event, at the Poetry Café, 22 Betterton Street, London WC2 (closest tube = Covent Garden).  This is London’s only regular event for women writers of all genres, with a warm and wonderful open mike sharing session, plus two featured writers each month.   Featured in February there will be Rosemary Norman, a poet of piercing observation, whose work has been widely anthologized and set for GCSE, and also filmed and toured internationally.  Also featuring will be one of London’s favourites, the powerful  Ruth O’Callaghan, who has been published in an avalanche of anthologies and magazines both at home and abroad, and has been translated into both Italian and Romanian – how cool is that!  And, just by way of a change yours truly, Agnes Meadows, will also be reading some of her work, and sharing some of the things she has both seen and felt since becoming a poet.  Ruth, Rosemary and I will also be performing a piece we’ve collaborated on entitled “What Not to do about the War…” which explores the horror, chaos and despair of conflict wherever it takes place, as well as the unexpected moments of comfort and life’s celebration against all odds.  

Loose Muse starts at 8.00 p.m -  £5.00/£3.00 concs.  And there are also chances for you to come and share and explore work in open mike readings from the floor.

 

Next we have ANGEL POETRY on Thursday 14th February, kicking off as usual at 7.00 p.m.  This monthly poetry reading is at Borders Bookshop at the Angel in the N1 Centre Parkfield Street, London N1 – the shopping mall opposite Angel tube station.   February features three poets with very different styles and approaches to poetry - first we have Alan Bainbridge, whose extraordinary work explores broad landscapes of emotion and literary muscle.  Then we have the perceptive Josh Ekroy, with words that will both stir and inspire you with their power.  And finally, featuring at Angel Poetry for the first time Lyn White, bringing us her finely honed poetry of insight and grace.  It’s a free event that also includes an open mike …all poets welcome. 

 

In both cases you can just sign up on the night or e me at agnes.meadows@discover.org.uk before if you want a floor spot.

And both Loose Muse and Angel Poetry are growing in popularity, so come along and share the passion and the joy.

LOOSE MUSE & ANGEL POETRY

Hi gang,

 

You may well not believe this, but I really am all chocolated and Christmas caked out, and plan to eat nothing but fruit and lightly steamed vegetables in the months ahead.  Thus, not only will I make genuine strides in regaining my girlish figure (!) but will also feel so enthused and inspired that shall finally finish The Novel.  That’s absolutely my resolution for the New Year, together with seeing the rest of the Silk Road.  Let’s wait and see which happens first!! Hope you all had a terrific Christmas and that 2008 will bring you all only joy, laughter, publication and lots of spare cash!! 

 

Before the predicted arctic conditions snow us all to our seats, why not head down to one of the events I have lined up for January. First to kick off 2008 in style, on Wednesday, January 9th there’s LOOSE MUSE at the Poetry Café, 22 Betterton Street, London WC2 (closest tube = Covent Garden).  This is London’s only regular event for women writers of all genres, with a warm and wonderful open mike sharing session, plus two featured writers each month.   Featured in January, there will be the fabulous singer songwriter Emma Cantons giving us a taste of her special brand of word magic, with songs whose themes range from blues and broken hearts all the way to beauty treatments and back. For Loose Muse Emma will be exploring how words and music can be combined with style and grace.  Also featuring will be the talented poet, performer, blogger and fiction writer Naomi Woddis, who has just launched her first chapbook of poetry and will share with us the joys of putting a collection together. The night starts at 8.00 p.m -  £5.00/£3.00 concs.  And there’s also chances for you to come and share and explore work in the open mike readings from the floor.

 

Next we have ANGEL POETRY on Thursday 10th January, kicking off as usual at 7.00 p.m.  This monthly poetry reading is at Borders Bookshop at the Angel in the N1 Centre Parkfield Street, London N1 – the shopping mall opposite Angel tube station.    January gives us a real treat, with three featured poets all having very different styles and approaches to poetry.  First we have the very special Timmy Wells with his distinctive brand of London poetry blending Cockney wit with sharp observations on London life – not to be missed.  Then one of my favourites making an incredibly welcome return to Angel Poetry, the multi-talented Niall O’Sullivan giving us a taster of poems from his newly launched book as well as a few old favourites to make us smile.  And finally, to light up dark January with his own brand of fabulous poetic eccentricity, the inimitable Will Hames giving us a surreal look at the world according to Hames. It’s a free event that also includes an open mike …all poets welcome. 

 

In both cases you can just sign up on the night or e me at agnes.meadows@discover.org.uk before if you want a floor spot.

 

And both Loose Muse and Angel Poetry are growing in popularity, so come along and share the passion and the joy.

LOOSE MUSE APOLOGIES FOR WEDNESDAY

December 14th

 

Dear All,

 

To everybody who turned up for Loose Muse this past Wednesday, December 12th, and had to wait around for the fiasco that the evening became, I want to send a heartfelt and sincere apology.  There really was no excuse for the room that Loose Muse was supposed to be taking place in to be locked, with no apparent access to the key so that we couldn’t get in and start the night.  I am so very sorry, although it genuinely wasn’t my fault.

 

There were over 30 people there that night who had come for Loose Muse, to see the wonderful Nandita Ghose and Adrienne Dines – Adrienne had come all the way from Walton-on-Thames, and her mum had come over from Ireland, while Nandita had made specially baby-sitting arrangements.  And of course several people had contacted me in advance for open mike floor spots, and they had all turned up too with friends.  There were at least 6 people there who had never been to a poetry event before, and I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if they never came to another one, which is a real shame…it’s hard enough getting a consistent audience for poetry and spoken word as it is, and this kind of situation really doesn’t help.  

 

To say I was frustrated would be an understatement, and it’s a tribute to both of the features, the open mikers, and the fans that they dealt with the cancellation with such good humour and affection.  To Nandita, Adrienne, Sarah, Ashley, Ruth, Maggie, Rosemary and everyone else who was present and as frustrated as me, I am really sorry you were disappointed, and I apologise for the mess the night turned into. 

 

I also want to apologise to the organizers of the other event taking place in the basement that night.  Clearly the fact that 30+ people were upstairs grumbling and drinking wine made your evening a bit of a nightmare too.  Not at all good….so very very sorry for that.

 

I have had an apology from the Poetry Café, and this is the first time something like this has happened with me there.  I now have the dates for the 2008 Loose Muse events confirmed in the calendar, so at least we’ll have the downstairs room again.  But I think it would be a good idea to always have 2 members of staff there in the evening, especially on a night when there are two events taking place, instead of the lone bar staff member trying to handle everything by herself and getting confused with keys. 

 

Loose Muse will be back on Wednesday, January 9th, with fabulous singer songwriter Emma Cantons giving us a taste of her special brand of word magic, and exploring her words and music can be combined with style and grace.  Plus poet Naomi Woddis, who has just launched her first chapbook of poetry with unique panache.

 

Also, just to remind  on Wednesday 19th December, I will be performing in collaboration with the gifted Ruth O’Callaghan and Rosemary Norman (under the collective new moniker of PURPLE), and will be performing a brand new piece entitled“What Not to do about the War…” specially put together and exploring the horror, chaos and despair of conflict as well as the unexpected moments of comfort and life’s celebration against all odds.   Specially woven together, “What Not to do about the War…” is guaranteed to touch places other poetry may not reach, by three mature poets whose experience mirrors both life’s micro and macrocosms.   This will be at the Navasartian Centre, 223 Northfields Avenue, West Ealing, London W13 9QU, starting at 7.30 p.m.  – nearest tube = Northfields.   Do come along to this, check this new piece out and let us know what you think of it…constructive criticism is always a good thing.

 

Have a Christmas filled with joy and wonder, and hope your 2008 is replete with word magic.

 

Love, always
