The writers behind this newsletter.
My personal account but the main substack is @aftershockpoetry - Arts Council funded magazine publishing the best poetry from trauma.
Poet, freelance editor & essayist. When I lost my flat I googled 'middle-class homelessness’ & found two things. One said, 'Let's face it: if you're middle class you're very unlikely ever to become homeless’. The other was about me.
'In Orbit', Seren, was voted People’s Choice at the Wales’ Book of the Year. ‘How to Make a Paper Grenade’ is now available through Verve Press.
I don't want to see a ghost, It's a sight that I fear most I'd rather have a piece of toast And watch the evening news

Poet, blogger. When I lost my flat to a £500 rent rise I googled ‘middle-class homelessness’ & found two articles. One said, ‘Let’s face it, if you’re middle class you are very unlikely ever to be homeless’. The other was about me. Then it was 2020.
