To close Wordfest 2007 it is with great pleasure we welcome two locally-based poets who have each received both national and international acclaim for their work.

Joan is influenced by both the human and the physical landscapes – her compilation Onetree Singing was described as “Beautiful work…I find I have copied many single and often moving lines into my notebook”. (Kevin Crossley – Holland).

Central to John's poetry are his wry observations on the familiar things in life, pinning the poignant against the commonplace, but always presenting situations and experiences to which we can relate. “His poetry, which is vibrant and taut is wide-ranging in form and theme.” (Sean Body, Tarantula Publications).
