I made the top 10 of the 2017 Poetry on Loan Competition with a poem "Carrying the Fire" which goes way back to Jo Bell's 52 Group prompts and which I've never published or entered in a competion before! The theme was Onwards, Upwards, Freedom. As the Staffordshire Poet Laureate was the competition winner and bagged two of the other top spots I guess I am in agood place!
