A reminder that nominations for the next NZ Poet Laureate are due this Friday - if you have someone you think would be a great spokesperson/advocate for Aotearoa NZ poetry, now's the time!
Nominations are open for NZ's next poet laureate - if you want to recommend someone who is "an advocate for New Zealand poetry" and "promotes the reading and writing of poetry", @PaulaJoyGreen has all the details on Poetry Shelf: nzpoetryshelf.com/2022/05/31…

"It’s such an exciting time to be a poetry reader right now with so many young poets producing ground-breaking and challenging work. Poets like @cadence_chung, @itsmekhadro, @milfs4minecraft and @RubySolly are all redefining what ‘New Zealand poetry’ means in their own ways."
