Poets sing our human music for us.
Having a child takes you back to all those parts of your own childhood that you had hidden away.
My prose is turgid, it just hasn't got any energy
It is a moon wrapped in brown paper.
It's always good when women win things in fiction because it tends to be more male-dominated, unlike poetry, which is more equal
For me, poetry is the music of being human. And also a time machine by which we can travel to who we are and to who we will become.
