Upload with Nina Das Gupta

Available for over a year

Discover tips for first-time writers, courtesy of Staffordshire's first female poet laureate, Emily Galvin-Wilson. On honing your craft writing poetry, she tells Lizzie Crow how she gets round writer's block by having free write sessions, whilst also focussing on her editing by often seeing if a piece can do without its first four lines. Emily recommends finding your tribe within open mic nights near you, as well as the starting blocks to getting published.
