Litfest

TWIN is a new bi-annual art and fashion magazine, “substance over surface is our motto” they say, and we were delighted to find in issue one (out now!), a poetry portfolio curated by the new Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy.

It gets better though because Carol Ann Duffy’s choice includes our very own (though sadly recently departed) Litfest Projects Manager Catherine Sadler, selected as one of 3 poets to watch out for.

Yay! Well done Catherine!

And let’s not stop there because, we should also congratulate Lancaster’s own Carole Coates, also selected in the portfolio. Carole read at this year’s Litfest09 when we held a launch event for the new Poetry Bookcase. Carole’s second collection of poems “Looking Good” was recently published by Shoestring Press and is available to buy from the Litfest Poetry Bookcase, along with her first collection The Goodbye Edition.

£8.95

£8.95

Third on Carol Ann’s list is Geraldine Clarkson.
