Corpses
Poetry. Fiction. Short Stories. These moribund miniatures take the boundary between life and death as their playground, capturing the triviality and quotidian horror of being human. "A darkly funny, wry, vivid set of poetic texts. This is doing the work poetry needs to be doing, it's about language itself as much as it's about the absurdity of our own physical lives and non-lives."--SJ Fowler

Poetry Ambassadors
Poetry Ambassadors presents the work of three exceptional new poets from the Solent region. It is the first publication from the Poetry Ambassadors mentoring scheme, a new programme supporting emerging literary talent co-founded by ArtfulScribe, Winchester Poetry Festival, and Will May from the University of Southampton.

Arresting, playful, and compelling, here are poems to challenge, provoke, and inspire.
Light Glyphs
Light Glyphs is a series of interviews with filmmakers on poetry, and poets on film. Featuring interviewees such as John Ashbery, Iain Sinclair, Lisa Samuels, and Guy Maddin, this intriguing set of interviews delves into the connections and shared interests of creatives behind the camera, and holding the pen. Light Glyphs seeks to explore 'ways of thinking, writing and seeing opened to new and changing possibilities [...] or in where the light escapes and how it obscures, in what is missing from the frame or smudging the lens.'
Rubbles
Rubbles is a swirling, errant and wild collection by David Spittle which echoes Prynne in its linguistic complexity and use of rhetorical flourishes as a critique of popular culture. Somewhere between "putting your head between a sanding belt and a circular saw" and "the would-be Russian elegy for expecting the unexpected item in the bagging area" Rubbles is by turns grandiose, innovative and an often thrilling assault on language, where "the path clears/by the use it gets".

You've Got So Many Machines, Richard!: an Anthology of Aphex Twin Poetry
How do you explain a mystery? This opaque mythology is something that pervades a lot of the poems here, inspired by the sideways, the askew, the fables of Aphex Twin. This isn't intended to be a discovery of who Aphex is, nor necessarily what he means to the contributors, rather an attempt to introduce the mythos and aura of Richard D. James. You won't get to know Aphex Twin better through these poems, but you will be intrigued, all over again. The most emotional of musicians, this Aphex Twin anthology provides a reminder that brain and heart can get pulled at by the unexpected as much as the nostalgic familiar.
Waterbearer
Waterbearer is remarkable and irrepressible like an asteroid tearing through the atmosphere, leaving exit wounds. Haunting and haunted, "like snow / for the beautiful dead"
