Really enjoyed writing my first review for the brilliant @Corridor8 & visiting this group show of work by women painters - 'The Pearls and the Oyster'. The pictures show work from the show by Nan Collantine and Jayne Simpson.

If you haven't read 'Medieval re-creation and translation' - a dialogue piece between E. K. Myerson & myself about working in the archives of Edwin Morgan & Derek Jarman as medievalists - this is the perfect moment to do so! @EdMorganTrust It's a great issue all round!

Reposting this because I think the event tonight @McrPoetryLib will be brilliant, and I'm very sad I might not be able to use my ticket - do you want it? Romalyn Ante and Imtiaz Dharker!
