‘Young Welsh and Poetic’ Live at Borders

13 December will be a very important day for the Swansea publishing company and writing team that is: ‘Young Welsh and Poetic’.  At 6pm they will be regaling the crowds at ‘Borders’ Fforestfach store with a selection of their own poetry, read from books available at the store’s Local Interest Section.

The company’s reputation for quality literary output has been growing steadily of late.

A ‘Book Launch Extravaganza’ held at the Grand Theatre in September saw the launch of four new titles, all of which are being considered for Academi’s Wales Book of the Year 2008 award.

Publicity has also come a-calling in the shape of a patriotically illustrated feature due to appear in the Winter addition of local glossy ‘Swansea Life.’   A recent photo-shoot for the Swansea Herald also featured Young Welsh and Poetic Director Karen Davies and new writer Lizzy Green who has just joined the team.

Karen said: ‘We are all thrilled about the reading.  It’s a real break through for us and a chance to give the public a flavour of the fresh, exciting and powerful language these poetry books contain.’
