Hey book-lover, how are you? Today we are going to interview Jen Feroze. She has been in love with language for as long as she can remember. A former Foyle Young Poet of the Year, her poetry has appeared in national and international journals and anthologies. The Colour of Hope is her debut collection. Jen is a bookworm with a love of baking, conversation that makes your brain fizz and really good cheese. She lives by the sea in Essex with her husband and two young children. Kangkan: How did you find poetry? Or, how did poetry find you? Jen: I remember learning about haiku in primary school, aged about 8, and finding it amazing the way you could make such vivid pictures with so few words. When I was 16 I was a winner of the Foyle Young Poet of the Year award, and as part of the prize I went on a week’s writing retreat with the Arvon Foundation at Lumb Bank in Yorkshire. I can honestly say that week changed my life and made me realise how important poetry is to me. Since then I’ve alw

Hey book lover! Today we will be talking with Anna Saunders - the founder of Cheltenham Poetry Festival. She is the author of six poetry books and her latest poetry book Feverfew was released on 4th January 2021. I didn't invite her just because she is a writer or a poet. I invited her because she is also a very good reader- a pure bibliophile. I hope you will enjoy the conversation between two readers. Kangkan: The number of books written by you clearly says how much you are passionate about writing. What is the inspiration behind this? Anna: I worked for a publisher and he said I had ink in my veins rather than blood. My family are all writers, my parents were journalists, novelists, poets - and I grew up in a house full of books surrounded by passionate bibliophiles. I learnt early that literature could affect wonders - it could enchant and intoxicate, take the reader to other worlds, and I soon developed an appetite to consume it in large amounts and then to write it. I wr

Hey book lover! Your favourite blog kmgreads completed a successful year on 25th January. When I started it, I didn't expect that I would continue it for a year. But your love and support made everything possible and I promise you that I will put more efforts to provide you with better content. To enjoy this happy moment, I invited poet, lomographer and songwriter Grae J. Wall . He is from St Albans, UK. Grae J. Wall's latest poetry book The Sound of Revolution was released on 7th December 2020. Kangkan: Music, poetry and photography -these three things have always been fascinating us, the humans and you are living the life among them. How does it feel? Grae: Quite organic I suppose, I really did just fall into the world with an innate need to create and capture and share. My mum was a poet and I was inspired by the poems she would send to the letters page of our local newspaper. I inherited my grandad’s old Kodak Brownie when I was six or seven and then aged about 11 I saw
