I'm loving this series of poems...
Today's piece of Tolkien silliness is dedicated to Trolls and to literature that's easy to digest. @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com

One poet I learned about a couple years ago is one you may like if you have not heard her yet. She’s from Scotland and now also writes for one of the papers.

And @miss_punnypenny on TikTok, where she also teaches us the Scots Word of the Day (in an ongoing effort "to spread the Scots language like a linguistic rash").
She has published a poyum book, and is also supported by Michael Sheen! heartleafbooks.com/book/9781805...

Thanks! On offer at Blackwells at the moment too. The endorsement from Lemn Sissay reminds me his autobiography "My name is Why" is well worth a read, though TW it cuts deep. About his childhood in care in Lancashire, with insight into the original local authority files.

Aw, for a hopeful second I thought she'd arrived here properly rather than just a placeholder account. I guess she's gone for somewhere which had easier video. Definitely a miss-from-twitter account.
