Glad to be back out doing proper length towpath wa Glad to be back out doing proper length towpath walks again, enjoying the last of the autumn colour. Also, a cracking evening at Poetry Alight earlier this week. Photos 1-9: Worcestershire autumn colour.

It’s been a busy month but I’ve been enjoying walk It’s been a busy month but I’ve been enjoying walking the autumn colour along the canal and finally being able to walk some new words on my blog too. (My latest news round-up, including events, online on my website here: https://www.sarah-james.co.uk/?page_id=7.) #poetry #writer #poetsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #writing #art #words #poetrycommunity #wordporn #life #poetryisnotdead #instapoet #inspiration #writerscommunity #instagood #poetsofig #creativewriting #poets #writers #photo #prompts #walking #worcestershire #nature #autmn #canal #trees #sunset
Autumn colours, time to pause & letting a few surp Autumn colours, time to pause & letting a few surprises sink in. It’s been a busy fortnight (mostly lovely stuff but still full-on), so I haven’t really had chance to celebrate winning the Geoff Stevens Memorial Poetry Prize 2024 (my poetry collection Darling Blue to be  published next year!) or being a runner-up in the Walk Listen Create 2024 Walking Together Writing Competition and third prize in the Leeds Peace Poetry Competition 2024! (Big congratulations to all the winners and shortlisted!) Most of writing life is, of course, hard work and often getting nowhere, so these were very welcome pieces of autumn news, as was heading briefly to Port Sunlight for the Wirral Poetry Festival, where my poetryfilm of one of my Darling Blue poems Owerblawing was in the festival videoanthology screened in the main gallery at the Lady Lever Art Gallery. Big thanks to the judges and organisers for making these wonderful things happen! I’m also very excited about new V. Press (@vpressbooks) titles out now/shortly/next year, and stanza this coming Friday – making it very much a poetry month here rather than just a poetry day!  Pix 1-9 Photos of Port Sunlight looking beautiful in the start of autumn colour. pic 10 Sneaking a photo of me next to part of my poetryfilm on screen. #poetry #writer #poetsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #writing #art #words #poetrycommunity #wordporn #life #poetryisnotdead #instapoet #inspiration #writerscommunity #instagood #poetsofig #creativewriting #poets #writers #photo #prompts #walking #nature #autumn #sun #books #wirral
