The first review of The Private Parts of Girls is out: the excellent For Books' Sake sent intrepid grrrl reporter Jackie Downs to King's College to see me read with John McCullough - her rather lovely thoughts on the poems, the wine (and the opulent chamber) can be found here. I was also itnerviewed by Anna Kirk for The Literateur, a fantastic and eclectic online literary magazine: thoughts on canonisation (erk!), film poetry (mmmm) and being queer here. Coming up, a dual (but not duelling) interview with John on Jen Campbell's awesome bookblog this is not the six word novel. Plus (best for last) I'm reading with Ali Smith (my favourite living novelist) at Clerkenwell Tales on Tuesday 5th July, 6.30pm. See you there?
