Click here to reach this month’s ezine - the ezine that reaches places that no other ezine has gone before – well, not on Write Out Loud anyway. From the south-east coast for poetry with Kate Tym (pictured), to the north-west’s Lakes for a festival review from Darren Thomas, and then on up to Edinburgh with anyone who’ll let us kip on their floor so we can see some fantastic acts at the Fringe.

Not forgetting, of course, Sympathetic Sybil – who is in fightin’ mood this month (must be something to do with the weather), an interview with poe-tic leg-end John Cooper-Clarke, Simon Rennie’s criminally cryptic crossword, Mystic Ted – still gazing enigmatically at his ball, going commando with Chris Dawson .... and even more!

And please remember that the Write Out Loud ezine is always on the lookout for contributions, have you got an interesting story to tell, or perhaps you have a unique take on something poetical people will want to know about? Let us know, and you could be in the next issue!
