@beesmade75
Nobody Important is a mysterious entity that loves poetry, but hates being the centre of attention.
He is based in Northern UK City and writes about love, loss, grief, and the horrors of being a person under capitalism.
He can be briefly glimpsed, sprinting through dense forest, beneath bridges under the full moon, during intense drug-inducted hallucinations, or at local poetry events in Northern UK City.
@nobody_important_poetry
Holly Jackson (she/her) is a thirty-nine-year-old, queer, mother of one and a poet and short fiction writer from County Durham.
She writes about love, loss, motherhood, feminism, sexuality, the occasional poem about pissing in bushes and whatever else tickles her poetical fancy.
Aside from writing and spoken word, her hobbies include reading, crafting, swearing, eating donuts and destroying the patriarchy.
