​Poetry reading at Berl's Poetry, Brooklyn, New York, USA 27 Apr 2017

Berl's Poetry is a fabulous independent Bookshop devoted solely to poetry. A family owned business its run by Jared White and Farrah Field.

Starting at 7.30pm the event was streamed live on Facebook which was a new one for me, but a lovely addition to our real living, breathing audience seated before us.

Lauren Hilger commenced reading with fascinating poems from her book 'Lady Be Good'. I really enjoyed listening to her work and was really interesting in hearing the context in which she'd written the poems.

After Chris Campanioni shared some brand new poems with us. They were pretty epic, humorous and poignant at the same time.

After I performed work from both my collections, and a lot of new poems to. I really enjoyed performing and it was great to see new faces, people from New York I was meeting for the first time and also familiar friendly faces I've connected with at other poetry readings.

A big thank you to Jared and our friends at Berl's for putting together a really special night, I look forward to the next one.
