Well, it's been ages hasn't it. I've been busy doing this and that. I've had some work in schools for the Birmingham Write On Project, which I thoroughly enjoyed once I'd settled in to it. I was working with six - eight year olds doing all sorts of poetry type things. I've also completed my residency with Wolverhampton Libraries and had to do a performance for that. We've had an Image Text Image Exhibition and performance in Shrewsbury. I was a runner up in the Ledbury Slam and of course I've been rehearsing Punch and Judy.

I've also sent my Arts Council Evaluation form back. It took me a couple of days to complete and I was really glad that I'd kept my records up to date and that I had this blog to refer back to. They have released the final bit of money so they were obviously happy that I'd done what I said I was going to. I requested that I was able to use the money that Arvon sent back to get some mentoring for Punch and Judy and the first bit takes place tomorrow. I'm very nervous about performing it infront of real people (even though it's only three of them).

August is a quiet month in terms of Performance Poetry so I've decided to have a bit of a rest but I've got bookings coming in for September onwards.
