With the outbreak of Covid-19, many poets were left without the opportunity to showcase their new work at launches, readings and festivals. Red Room Poetry has stepped into the breach by publishing In Your Hands: A poetry collection for isolated times – a free digital anthology of 80 poems by Australian poets whose recent or forthcoming books have been affected by the pandemic. My poem ‘Brag or Bait’ is included in the anthology, which you can download HERE.

Adelaide Writers’ Week Poetry podcast
A podcast of the 2016 Adelaide Writers’ Week poetry reading is now available. This year, poet and novelist Peter Goldsworthy chose five South Australian poets to read at the session, and appear in a complementary poetry feature for the March edition of Australian Book Review. The feature is part of ABR’s ‘States of Poetry’ project. I’m among the poets who were chosen to appear at the reading, along with Aidan Coleman, Jelena Dinic, Jill Jones and Kate Llewellyn. Details for the podcast are as follows: Laura Kroetsch: Director’s introduction (0:00); Peter (0:17); Aidan (2:40); Jelena (17:06); Jill (28:48); Kate (40:50); and me (53:12).
