Dan O'Connell Poetry Reading
As a performance poet it's true: you're only a popular as your last venue. It's been seven months or so now since I've read publicly (due to the birth of my now six-month-old daughter). After many months of the emails stopping, the phone not ringing and me wondering whether the last few years of performances, the publication of my last book, the radio appearances have been forgotten, I'm very, very relieved to say that the invites are starting to trickle in again.
On May 21st I'll be the featured poet at the Dan O'Connell Readings in Carlton. Oddly enough, this marks a bit of a milestone for me: despite all of the feature readings I've had at Melbourne venues and events: The Melbourne Writers Festival, The Human Rights Arts and Film Festival, the Overload Poetry Festival, Passionate Tongues, La Mama Poetica, Westwords, The Spinning Room, Wordplay and so on and so forth, this is the first time I've been asked to feature at the Dan - perhaps the longest standing poetry reading in Melbourne.
I'll be reading all new work from my forthcoming* collection Sleep While The Baby is Sleeping.
