Final approaches

So I'm in an agony of choice for the final, with poems vying for attention all over the place. Tomorrow, 24th Sep. the semi-final is broadcast and I'm managing to be trepidacious about that, even though I know it went ok. So anyway, catch the show and wish me luck for Birmingham on the 6th.

Through to the finals!

Last night I managed to win the Radio 4 Poetry Slam semi-final in Liverpool, so I'll be off to the final in The Conservatoire in Birmingham on October 6th. The semi-final will be broadcast on 24th September on Radio 4 at 11pm, so check it out, a... very very tough campaign. It was a great night, Abby and Scott Tyrell both made it to the last round, but got pipped at the post. I'm really looking forward to catching the edited version on the radio next week. Terribly exciting. Now I should be straight back into practice again, but I'm totally sleepy right now.
Thanks to the kind people who sent me messages of support, it does actually help!
