Looking back on Leicester's Shindigs
Jonathan Taylor has posted a short piece looking back at Leicester Shindigs, 2010-2017. It was a great pleasure to read there on several occasions, and an even greater one to attend regularly. I hope it will return in some form, but whatever happens, it did a great job of giving both new and established poets a regular forum, and huge thanks are due to Jane Commane, Matt Nunn, and Maria and Jonathan Taylor, who fronted it and did all the behind-the-scenes work that made it such a success.

Thanks for this, Matt. I wouldn't have seen Jonathan's piece otherwise.
You have been modest (typically) about the part you played in the early years, when Shindig started life in the basement of The Looking Glass. The years at The Western were built on that foundation.
