I was invited to read some of my poetry this weekend.
It was an Ink Deep reading, a relatively new poetry collective in Kendal, organised by the fabulous Mary Shiels. There have been several previous events that I've managed to attend, all excellent.
This one was a little different, being part of the Kendal Mountain Festival, an annual event held here. It brings film-makers, adventurers, explorers and environmentalists to Kendal, all celebrating mountains and the outdoors globally.
The reading went well, following a fun morning drumming with the Samba band I'm part of, also for the festival.
Great to be involved in such a great event held in our small town.
