What is Poets On Fire? What do you want with me?
Poet, novelist and critic Jane Holland started stoking the furnaces of Poets on Fire in 2006. Jane has recently become editor of Horizon (a new on-line literary review) and, to ease her increasing work load, has called in re-enforcements to ensure this blog keeps burning brightly. Nina Davies, Matt Merritt and Charlotte Runcie share Jane's fiery passion for live poetry (whether in pubs, clubs, bookshops or theatres, whether it's Slam!, open mic or formal reading) and are hell-bent on bringing you news about live poetry events throughout England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Please email event details to: poetsonfire at hotmail dot co dot uk
