Welcome!  Join quality poetry masterclasses, writing and mindfulness workshops with the best teachers.  We specialise in professional development for practising poets.  Events are listed with UK timing - double check your timezone (more info in the event descriptors below). You can also join my mailing list Cathx 

For example, 9am UK time is 5pm Perth, Australia time or 8pm Sydney, Australia time. When you add the event to your calendar it should be correct for your timezone. 

This is a temporary site while my website is being rebuilt.
