“She says she’s accomplished things in her thirty years she thought she never would, and she’s starting to get bored. I tell her I’ve made $650 from poetry in the last three years, before tax.” New @JordanHamel_ at @havehadhavehad! havehashad.com/hadposts/free…

Great tasting notes in this review of @kotukutitihuia Tauhou “ this one’s for the lovers of language, lean prose-poetry you can dip in and out of and think about for hours. Best read beside a large body of water.”

That 'someone' was me. Thanks @TheSpinoffTV for the opportunity to rank Reacher like the madwoman I was when I read them.
A comprehensive ranking from someone who read them all in two months. thespinoff.co.nz/books/25-11…

Devastated I’m not in Wellington reading poems, singing karaoke and gossiping over soju with everyone at @verbwellington right now. But you can still hear my words being performed by several amazing poets at this special event ❤️ verbwellington.nz/festival-2…

'Jordan Hamel’s debut collection is an honest, hilarious, frenzied, fast-moving little book.' Lovely to see a wee review here in this poetry roundup in the ODT alongside a review of No Other Place to Stand (@AUPBooks) and other wonderful new books. odt.co.nz/entertainment/book…
