Poet in Residence at Kingston Libraries
Alison Hill, Poet in Residence at Kingston Libraries
'Rhythm & Muse has shown over the past four years that there is a wealth of creative talent in our area and this residency will help provide more events - and hopefully more inspiration - to local poets of all ages. I will also be working on a full collection to include some 'library and heritage' poems produced during my time as Poet in Residence.'
Kingston Libraries' poet in residence Alison Hill is running a series of events and workshops across the borough. Alison, who has been published in a wide range of magazines and anthologies, also runs Rhythm & Muse, a monthly poetry and music event at the Ram Jam in Kingston. Her pamphlet, Peppercorn Rent, was published by Flarestack in 2008 and she has just completed her first full collection, which includes some poems written during her residency.
