a few things on other sites
Friday, March 27th, 2009I thought I’d add some links to a few things I’ve seen recently which I thought might be of interest to the resident poets and people visiting the site.
Booktrust has their first poet in residence. You can follow his journey at: http://www.booktrust.org.uk/show/feature/Home/Writer-in-residence
Poet Yemesi Blake wrote a piece on the creative art of blogging which is up on the Literature Training website:
http://www.literaturetraining.com/metadot/index.pl?id=40306&isa=DBRow&op=show&dbview_id=2323
Also, I just read this piece on the Guardian website about regional accents and I wondered if any of the writers had thought about poetry, place and dialect?

hello gerry, thank you for those, really interesting, especially your comment on accents and dialect, as they have there own poetry. Some of Rukus’s work seems to me to have it’s own dialect, adds a musicality to it. Been hearing lots of dialect on my Secret Six project, valley dialects are different from hill dialects, which are different to sea dialects, landscape effects it.., maybe the cities and their landscapes create new rthyms and dialects beyond regional accents? speaking in between the roar of traffic and hearing snatches of secrets on mobiles.
