King Ink Collection #1 Launch (October 2024)

All right? This month, we launched the first issue of the King Ink Collection, a celebration of our diverse, talented and raucous open mic regulars.

Some of the poems in this episode feature in the collection (available to buy from our Etsy store); some were from people who just wanted to celebrate the launch with us.

For your listening pleasure, we have Nil Desperandum by Helen Wilko, Tell Me, Physician by AJ McKenna, The After-Lifeguard by Ann Porro, The List by David Farn / Owen Brecon (Wales' Greatest Nature Poet, 1984), Rat With Wings by Helen Rogers, Grow by Laker Turner, and The Dahlias of St Beuno's by Mel McAvoy.

Thank you so much to all of our contributors (both to the collection and to the launch night itself) and to our glorious hosts, Pop Recs. We love you all!

King Ink's podcast is hosted by Helen Wilko and produced by James Whitman.
