This event is being hosted on Zoom on Tuesday, November 24th, from 7.30pm.
Our featured readers for November are Emma Clowsley. Maria Cohut and S. Reeson.
Emma Clowsley is an award winning poet, performer, host and workshop facilitator whose work explores relationships, boundaries and stereotypes. Taking queer narratives into mainstream spaces, she aims to nurture understanding and compassion between communities. She has two pamphlets published with Flight of the Dragonfly, her latest 'The Mid-Life Lesbian' was adapted to a one woman show that is touring the UK.
Maria Cohut is a Romanian writer living in Brighton. Her writing is haunted by questions of identity, displacement, and how to fight the banalisation of violence. It features widely online and in print, including the Borders & Belonging anthology, The Other Side of Hope, and The Madrid Review, and has also aired on the radio. Maria’s first chapbook, Spatter Pattern (back room poetry, 2023), explored the issue of gender-
based violence by reimagining detective fiction tropes. Her debut collection, Multiple Exposures (Flight of the Dragonfly, 2026), is a multi-layered meditation on migration, writing in an adopted language, and healing fractured identities.
S. Reeson (she/they) is a working-class, neurodivergent poet whose space and shape poetry is underpinned by mental health, existential angst, speculative fiction and the current state of the planet. They have been published consistently in anthologies, journals and online since their first publication with The Poetry Society in 2018. They have published two pamphlets and two chapbooks, and are currently working on a collection.
