It’s almost October, which means it’s almost Spooky Poem Month is nearly upon us!

Spooky Poem Month is a programme of live poetry, free online writing workshops and writing prompts!

Every week I’ll be sharing some writing prompts on Instagram and Facebook (with some bonus ones on the Spooky Poet Club Discord), followed up by a special writing challenge. This year, the weekly themes are setting-based, with each one delving into different sub-genres of horror.

Which genres? You’ll just have to wait and see!

Event Schedule

Friday 4th – Spooky Poet Club: FREE WORKSHOP THE FIRST

Tuesday 8th – spooky poems at OPEN PLATFORM

Friday 18th – Spooky Poet Club: FREE WORKSHOP THE SECOND

Sunday 20th – POETRY BITES at the Biscuit Factory

Thursday 24th – Out of Your Head Takeover – Theme: ‘Tales of Terror’

Saturday 26th – TERROR IN THE TUNNEL



That’s right, as a Spooky Poem Month special, there’s will be twice as many online workshops on the Discord, and they’re going to be completely free! And there’s even going to be some special Spooky Poet Club merch coming to the shop very soon.

I can’t wait!
