   About Rhian Edwards
Born in Bridgend, South Wales 1977. Moved to Derbyshire when I was 8, came to London at 18 to study to be lawyer and have parked here ever since. I am currently assuming the role of a writer with the FT, but poetry and music is what I wake up for. Started writing poetry about 4 years ago, and have since racked up over 200 gigs in London, France and Holland, and some people like the BBC's Radio 3 The Verb have even be silly enough to pay me to write poems. The Battersea Arts Centre have recently commissioned me to write a one-woman poetry show, which in its current guise is an autobiographical play in blank verse called With Tongues. Last year was a busy one for performing poetry at festivals, including the Ruigoord Poetry Festival, Latitude, and my first Edinburgh Show Invisible Ink with Nathan Penlington and Suzanne Andrade.

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace -

2 of 230, walkaboutsverse.741.com: WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN

Once drove an old sedan, up north,
From a place in Sydney to Cairns;
Then to Kuranda I went forth,
By train, to look without set plans.

I browsed through the trendy market,
With fresh fruits of tropical kind;
Walked to the creek through lush thicket -
Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.

I dined in a scenic cafe;
Then, outside, as I wrote for yen,
Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey,
You go walkabout with your pen.”

Request or question, I don’t know -
Assured voices, elderly men.
That’s now several years ago,
And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.

Liebe Poetic Friends,

Poetryclub hat die Goldene Zeit eingeläutet. Und zwar, in dem wir die ersten beiden brandneuen Songs vom kommenden Album online gestellt haben. LIEDERGABE und DIE WELT IST SCHÖN heißen sie und geben euch den ersten Eindruck auf das, was euch im nächsten Monat als Gesamtwerk erwarten wird. Hört euch das an und schreibt uns schonungslos eure Meinung. Nach und nach werden sich noch weitere Songs dazugesellen. Bleibt also gespannt und kommt ab und zu mal gucken.

Danke für eure Geduld und

The next two Salt Margins at The Whitechapel Gallery are unmissable. Hope to see you there!


Thursday 2 August

Luke Kennard
Laura Forman
Adam Green
The Ex-Men

At 26 Luke Kennard is the youngest ever nominee for the Forward Prize for Best Poetry Collection. He reads from The Harbour Beyond The Movie, his outstanding

second book. Lazy Gramophonite Adam Green reads from Satsuma Sun Mover, a surreal coming-of-age tale. Generation Txter Laura Forman performs poems about Bon

Jovi (yes!) and Battersea Power Station. Plus music and spoken word from Glasgow-based duo The Ex-Men. Doors 7pm, free entry. Produced in association with

Salt Publishing.


Thursday 20 September

Melanie Challenger
Eleanor Rees
Chris McCabe
Songdog

Salt poets Eleanor Rees (Andraste's Hair) and Melanie Challenger (Galatea) have both been nominated for this year's Forward Prize for Best First Collection.

Which is reason enough to come and hear them read. Like Eleanor, Chris McCabe is a Salt poet and a Liverpudlian. His collection The Hutton Inquiry is a

powerful examination of language under pressure. Musical refreshment is provided by the excellent Songdog, led by playwright Lyndon Morgan.
