[theofficialesjae]

I love all of Hollie's poetry... I hope one day that I can be somewhere near as good as her :)

[andrewjuggler]

What a star, thank you Hollie for you poetry, heard you first on Woman's hour doing Whow, I'm a 52 year bloke you've got me in tears of happysadness, beautiful, My sister battered me with angry feminism despite the fact that was/am a gentle soul, you put into words so elequently the way people lose their feeling selves to social norms created by the media world. Big thanks.

My best friend is in love with poetry, and when she showed me this, I can see why she loves it so much

You are very talented, and I'd love to be able to watch you live (:

[standuppoetry]

Thanks for all the comments, good and bad! As for the voice thing, I really don't 'put on an accent', I was bloody nervous on the radio and am normally hype when reading out so yeah, sound different at different times, neither s a 'fake' voice man! x

Heard you, Holly, reciting Miz Nature on Radio 4 yesterday. Magic.

Really liked it ! Hope to see it posted here soon as would love to hear it again.

Her words are great, but I'm really put off that she speaks quite posh in conversation but turns on the cockney accent (almost afro caribean cockney) when performing poetry, it's just spoils it for me and I can't watch anymore.. I'll read her words though cos I like them. But hate her performance.

[inspirewithhope]

What a perfect ending! I love this! :D

[Api2Bmeanalien]

I don't understand a word of the french, but it sounds fantastic. Brilliant. x
