Poetry Prize win

Delighted to share that I’ve won a poetry prize, under my pen name Bassi Meri.

It’s for the 2025 International Women’s Day, and I’ll be reading my poem at Swindon Central Library.

Here’s more info about the day – lots of stuff going on arranged by Swindon culture organisations and Shouting Softly Swindon who ran the competition.

I’ve written more about it here, too
