The shortlist for this month's poetry workshop, hosted by Adèle Geras, is out this morning - big thanks to the hundreds of you who entered. Adèle's exercise on short poetry was extremely popular and elicited some very strong responses (as you can see from the poems that made the final cut). Take a look at what she made of the shortlist here. And for those of you who missed this month's workshop and are at this moment sobbing over your keyboards about it, September's workshop, hosted by the wonderful Micheal O'Siadhail (whose latest collection, Love Life, comes out next month) will be up on the site on Monday the 12th.
