This month's guest is the magnificent Matt Black. Former Derbyshire Poet Laureate, Matt Black, writes poems for adults and children. His collections are Swimmer, Goblin In The Fridge, Footsteps and Fuddles. His poetry has also been published in various anthologies through Macmillan, OUP, Hodder and Stoughton, and scholastic.
Matt has won awards and commissions, and has toured in Germany, U.S.A., Ireland, Poland and the Czech Republic.
He has set a World Record (unofficial) performing in 50 venues in 5 hours on a tandem bicycle, and invented the world’s first Poetry Jukebox, which he uses regularly at festivals.
“Matt Black’s writing is intense, detailed and deeply original, frisky and funny and sad.... Brilliant.”
