Join this insightful discussion on the craft and career of being a poet at this year’s Gloucester Poetry Festival. Whether you're an aspiring writer or an established poet, this event will help you explore the practicalities of making a living - or more accurately, a life - through poetry and creative work. We’ll be talking side hustles, complementary day jobs, funding, work/life balance and more, plus there’ll be an audience Q&A for all your burning questions.

Featuring Adam Horovitz, Kate Potts, Maria Stadnicka, the discussion will be hosted by teacher, publisher and acclaimed poet Philip Rush.
