Just Jax
Jacqueline writes micro-fiction.

Her material has been broadcast on BBC Radio and Somer Valley FM as a result Jacqueline is becoming well known for her work.
Liam Callaghan
Like a preacher without a church, Liam Callaghan’s poetry draws from the current zeitgeist with fiery spirit to deliver a necessary message to the masses.
Colin Dick

A mediocre snooker player, he writes poems born of confusion, frustration and outright failure - peppered with the occasional fleeting moment of triumph. Predominantly a performance poet, his work manages to weave its way to and fro through circles of pain, hope and nostalgia - never entirely losing sight of the goal to entertain.
Isabel White
Founder of poetry collective Alarms & Excursions, Isabel has been writing and performing for over 20 years. She has performed all over the UK, in Paris and Rotterdam, working with a host of familiar names – including Bernadine Evaristo, Matt Harvey, John Hegley, Michael Horowitz… Isabel was twice finalist in the BBC Radio 3 Proms competition. Her work has been published on three continents, in over forty online and print journals and anthologies, on Radio in the UK and USA. She has three full collections and three pamphlets published to date.
