Darren J Beaney - reading some poems

Me reading some of my poems.
I am  part of a collective that host a bi-monthly spoken word night in Brighton - Flight of the Dragonfly (on Zoom during COVID-19 restrictions). I'm a hopeless romantic! I enjoy music, predominantly punk rock, but a lot of other sounds as well. I like a good lyric and a rockin' raucous gig! I cut my own hair; my favourite author is Orwell. I love Marmite & appreciate a good pint of craft IPA. I live in sunny East Preston on the West Sussex coast, with my lovely family, our rescue cats - Annie and Eddie, rescue dog Woody and Hamirez the hamster. I have had poems published by The Hedgehog Poetry Press, Indigo Dreams Publishing, Parthian Books, Dempsey & Windle, Poetry NI, Four Parts Press and The Angry Manifesto. My debut pamphlet Honeydew will be published by The Hedgehog Poetry Press in December 2020. I have recently completed an MA in Creative Writing at the University of Brighton.
