$Poetry Evening & Open-mic! \ud83c\udfa4 w\/ special guests Simon Sweetman & Michael Fitzimons!$

In the lead-up to Phantom Billstickers National Poetry Day, visit Schrödinger's Books, where you will become a poet through the medium of Blackout Poetry.
With the help of a marker pen, find the perfect verse hidden on the pages of recycled, unwanted books, and submit your best work to win a stack of poetry collections.
Then at 6pm on Friday the 22nd, there will be an evening of poetry from Simon Sweetman ('The Richard Poems') and Michael Fitzsimons ('High Wire'), followed by an open-mic, and the announcement of the Blackout Poetry competition winner.
Recommended for 16+
Competition runs 16th - 22nd August, submissions made in-store.
