Zata invited to read at The Poetry Café, Saturday 13 December, 7:30pm

I have been invited to read at The Poetry Café on Saturday 13 December. Publicity material for the event is below:

Platform 1 is a wonderfully eclectic night of poetry and spoken word at The Poetry Café, hosted by Ernie Burns and Amy Neilson Smith. This month’s event features:

Mishi – a devoted Stalwart Football fan, his work, often written in a real-life, working man’s rhyme is honest and hilariously self deprecating

Zata Kitowski – a jewel of antithesis, her collection Doppelgangers is published by Heaventree Press

James McKay – since graduating from Cambridge, his lyrical work and mastery of Victorian classics has stolen many a show

Elphara – a violinist whose music will pluck your heart strings
